Reviews on Beelman Truck Co in East St. Louis/St. Louis

Yellow Star got it, But I haven't been back there in months, yeah I don't miss that yard either a dust bowl or a flooded mess but the run paid good. Yes Pam still with us I run into her on a regular bases she out works a lot of the men, she doesn't take any Sh*& from other driver's either we just added another one at the Indy terminal she seems ok time will tell i guess. We are pretty light most of us are mty wt is between 27400 and 28800 depending on the trailer.

 

I spoke to them at the ESTL terminal a while back and they were some of the most arrogant people I've ever spoken to in trucking or anywhere. Sure are full of themselves. Growing up in the area, I've heard good and bad over the years, about 50/50. I'm told you can make $ there but you'll work like a dog to get it. My impression of them was "I don't think I want to deal with you people" so I never even filled out the application and went elsewhere.

 

LOL I run out of the Indy terminal and them Illinois guys can be a pain in the but there are some good old boys over there but not many any terminal outside of Illinois are considered red headed step children.

 

Anybody know how the test drive is here? What kind of transmissions? Do they test you on certain trailers?

 

Im guessing by the looks 10 speed manual with 48 foot dumps or side dumps... Most jobs like them don't do backing tests.... Pretty much a wide open space when you back no lines to a dock its a simple open area you dump at... No alley docks if your concerned about your ability... If you can shift a 10 eaton your A-ok

 

Dont waste your time at beelman they have new equipment because they dont pay anyone what theyre worth. Power plants is there babys not the workers. Indy coke plant burns trailers down and writes beelman checks. Stay away.
