newbie- freymiller or Hogan? have to start Monday ..

Search some more.... Threads on both of them on this site

 

I'd go with Freymiller. Reason is, can't find negative posts about them. There's not much on Hogan at all except they do lots of Northeast and the paychecks aren't that great.
This is your first job, so you can change in 3 or 4 months if it doesn't work out like you want.

Years ago I was driving for a dry van outfit and picked up a load of wool in California and all the paperwork had Freymiller on it. That was known as a "trip-lease" load and I took it to North Carolina.

Freymiller is headquartered right there where you are in Oklahoma City.

 

@Chinatown is the boss

 

I think you feel the same as I do about some of those Craigslist ads. Some of those jobs are pure junk such as "We're going to do you a favor and put you on a dedicated account that's normally reserved for our most senior drivers." Ads like that means they can't keep drivers on them because the driver is actually a glorified lumper unloading trucks at junk places like Target, Dollar General, K-Mart, etc.

 

You chose a good career in trucking. I won't badmouth trucking because I did real well. Had some rough times in the beginning though because didn't have a website like this one to learn from. Be safe and enjoy your new career.

 

Your a stud, keep doing what you do...

 

Believe @BuckeyeKev still works for Hogan, and started recently. Maybe he'll, or his VERY supportive girlfriend, chime in.
