Poly Trucking What you need to know !

how many loads on the avg are u guys gettn to pick from, has the number of loads to choose from went down or has the quality of the runs to choose from went down. are there any runs that you used to do that have gone to outside carriers or u just dont see anymore?

 

4 to 5 currently ...used to be so many I would stop them from reading the whole list and just grab the first good one i heard as they went down the list .

Both ... For the last month and a half all Ive been offered are 4 or 5 short runs
when dispatch rings me up. They state its all they have , i am good about getting on the OB Board the instant i see the opportunity.

No way to know what the Contract Carriers are actually pulling out of Cottage Grove and
Grand Prairie . I asked the shipping boss a while back and he stated they basically go where Poly drivers can't go . Of course most of the drivers have concocted great conspiracy theories as to who is taking the loads. ( I try to avoid the lounge for this very reason , it like walking through a swamp of bull****)

I was recently told by a driver that there are no more Laredo loads , later in the day dispatch
calls me and offers me a Laredo Load. So i don't think anyone knows whats what at Poly.
No way to know what the future holds

 

Lets see....A fleet that needs updating and contract carriers
I'd be looking elsewhere
Don't see it getting better for U guys

 

I know what you mean ....
Im hoping they don't close the doors on the trucking division
but you never know. Ive been at a company that has gone under
before , and its no fun . As bad as the place is its still the best place
I've ever been at believe it or not.
Freedom + Great Home time means more to me than anything else.

Looks like we drivers will have to wait and see what gives

 

We're U the driver that was with Jevic?
Or do I have U confused with another person

 

You're thinking of maninthemoon1, he was a Jevic driver

 

Thanks SSB
Got the roof done yet

 

The back half is complete. Extra fiberglass, truss' reinforced, all new OSB and hurricane strength steel. Was putting the last screws in as the rain started.

 

Steel or shingle roof?
So tired of this rain, love to see the sun up here

 

In FL, steel. Lasts longer, and reflects more heat. It had 25 yr shingles on it originally that were 16 years old and I had leaks to repair every home time.
