Crete Carrier - A Year In Review - Fall 2013 Going Forward

I have not worked dedicated Wal Mart, so I hesitate to say, but if I was considering it, the first thing I would do is consider where the DC I worked out of was.

I would work OTR in preference to a Wal Mart account in the Northeast, but might choose a midwest Wal Mart in preference to OTR.

I di not know where all the Wal Mart DCs are that we service their store deliveries, but I do know that at least most of them are in Central or Mountain time zones.

 

That's not what my Qualcomm message said. OTR and most accounts will see raises and a revamped bonus system, as well as a new optional Perdiem pay system that I have not looked at closely enough to evaluate yet.

 

Do they still do Walmart in Cheyenne?

 

They were when I went by there earlier this month

 

Walmart was going to change from crete but the new carrier from what I understand bailed on them after signing contract but before starting ops.

 

Yeah, that was Swift that backed out. Did the same at another DC... maybe Pauls Valley. You can get the miles at Cheyenne but have to deal with Denver. Never hear good things about Pauls Valley, OK. North Platte is run well and can get miles. Not sure about Manketo, MN.

 

I think they backed out of terrell tx from what I understand..i believe werner backed out of pauls valley too

 

C’mon wage war!

 

True. Do it. Miles have been good for me as well. Occasional short run backed up with something longer immediately. Able to maintain 500/day average.

 

Yes. Tried recruiting help out of DeLand terminal.
