    Looking for any current info &/or feedback from west coast/region drivers on Monterey Mushroom/Monterey Logistics?
    Can`t find hardly any info or reviews online, they seem to offer decent package but don`t know how they roll or expectations of drivers
    Thank`s in advance!

    I second the request, only out of FL. I can only find a few reviews about driving for them, but the review shows an hourly wage, so I am guessing it is a local delivery or local shuttle driver.

    The ad claims OTR pay is in the $70k range...almost sounds too good to be true.

    I used to deliver straw to their plant down in Morgan Hill all the time. Seemed like all pro star trucks and extremely tight docks they were backing into. Didn't know they were a national company.
     
    GranaRig831 Thanks this.

    details of co & position only discussed once in for interview & road test.. they do run some OTR 48 plus regional,
    all trucks(leased) have outward & inward facing cameras, peoplenet,
    no smoking policy in trucks,
    some customers require driver-unload(back/spine will be evaluated during physical) ,

    seems like decent co with nice benefits if you can deal
    with the above,
    start pay of around 38cpm & up(depends on exp)

    that`s why there always seems to be open driver positions on craigslist but they won`t state it in ad & make most prospective`s fill out app for interview only to find out about the "details",

    yep cameras & no smoking policy are primary reasons why I did`nt accept.. & assume alot of others,
    they say it`s only for safety reasons & I can somewhat understand but...:eek:
