    are there any drivers out there with any recent experience with IRT? What about any other companies that hire out of Alabama? I'm tired of pulling a box and flatbed and am looking to get back in a tanker.

    I've talked to a few of those drivers and none of them had anything good to say. Maybe it's just the Decatur Alabama yard. I don't know

    Haven't heard many good things about them. I called once a couple years back and the woman acted like I disrupted her day that's all I needed to hear.

    I have called Indian river did not impress me at all. Generally speaking when somebody stars talkin a sliding pay scale thay are going to short your pay check. I also Called Oakley same thing nuthing I would give a second thought to. Hope this helps
     
    Adrienna Brown and poppapump1332 Thank this.

    Yeah I'm not a fan of the sliding pay scale unless I can make a minimum of .39cpm on the high mileage runs. Most of their runs should be lower mileage runs from what I have heard.

    I've worked at the Decatur yard for over three years and have no real complaints. Makes me wonder about the drivers you've heard from. lol
