Cargo Transporters Claremont, NC

Yes Big Red, a few weeks ago. I do like it. I like the shock absorber feel to the ride. Definitely an improvement. Takes bumps better.

 

It took them less than 2 hours to install the seat in my truck.

 

Unless it's the type of facility that gets you in and out in 30 minutes, a sign so blatantly disrespectful like that would make me want to take a leak right in the parking lot and hope they see me.

 

I live in Statesville,nc an I was wondering about cargo what are you governed at,what's your main running lanes,an starting pay for 9 years experience

 

Governed at 65 mph. I 77, I 81, I 95, I 40 since you live in Statesville. Don't know what your pay rate would be.

 

After doing a drop Monday Morning in Horsham PA, (QVC/UPS overnight run) Cargo had trouble getting me a load home. An Ocean Spray load went awry when my appointment said to be between 1530 and midnight actually was a hard 1530. I was only halfway through a ten hour break. Got there at 2130 and was told I would have to reschedule. Load taken off me. Drove an hour west to Pine Grove and shut down. Tuesday was sent to Mancor in Allentown for a 2pm. I got there and there was no load booked. Retired to Trexlertown Truck Plaza nearby and shut down. Should have known something wasn't right when there was no B/L number on the dispatch. Finally got a legit load out of Philly (a candy load) picked up yesterday morning and left at 10am and rolling through Baltimore when I got an unfavorable traffic report from DC and NOVA. Head to I 97 and US 301. Shoppers traffic from mm50 to 16. At least two hours in that soup. Stopped for early din din at the J in Ruther Glen VA then proceeded on to the Loves in South Hill. A mere chip shot to Variety Wholesalers, then to the house for a three day break. Oh yeah, got $100 layover and an apology. Hope its not a long winter! Got vacation planned in late January to shorten the winter a little. Merry Christmas!

 

Don't miss that crap at all. $100 doesn't even come close to making up for sitting around for a day or two.
Reading that brings back memories of how frustrating it was working at CT. Sitting in jersey for a day waiting for a back haul that probably didn't even cover the companies expenses to haul in the first place.

 

I ignore signs like that and if anyone says anything, I don't say anything or argue and just use their parking lot.
