Titus Transportation

The warehouse employees don't care at all about the product once it is loaded. I always put my own straps on the product in the back but that doesn't help with the product in the front of the trailer.

 

They must of turned the trucks up, 73 mph is great to pass and get around someone quickly. That is so true about night dispatch and day dispatch, they are suppose to keep pass down notes so that everyone knows what is going on but seems like it doesn't happen regularly. Cool to get a Mon-Fri gig pretty quick, I always worked the weekends but really didn't mind.

 

I heard Titus was going mainly to the autoshifts,i is this true ? And what are their tractors like for regional drivers..also didn't they have at one time a run from va to Chicago down to Texas and back to GA..If they have a run kinda like that then that could be a nice run...or is it mostly local dc's to stores now...and info would be nice.

 

Old thread but looking for current info on these guys - specifically the Salem VA barn. I'd like to get away from hazmat and fingerprinting everything.

Pay? Equipment? Overall review?

 

Ironic I took another local job that started today. In orientation, there is a lady that was a dispatcher for Titus for a few years.

Across the board, she has nothing positive to say about Titus. Questionable payroll practicing cea, a leased truck fleet that commonly has trucks visited by the repo man, questionable safety practices, questionable leadership and management, so on and so forth.

This is all, obviously, hearsay and I only know her from a few hours of orientation day 1, so take that as you will but unless you're a day 1 CDL grad desperate to stay local, I'd probably recommend passing on this gig. For better or worse, I'm glad I did the same.

Once I have seat time, I'll post a review of the company I wound up with.

Thanks. Stay safe

 

I started the Titus / ALDI thing in April. It's often chaotic scheduling, but to sort of be fair the location is for a brand new warehouse serving many brand new stores and some are still opening so the whole thing might take a long time to settle down.

Our warehouse preloads the trailers which is nice if the pallets don't tip. It's mostly okay, but sometimes an absurd spill. Sometimes just a pallet leaning and if you're really lucky, can be pushed back. It still blows my mind they can't figure out a streamlined way to secure these palletized loads.

For what it's worth, my job market in southern Alabama really sucks for local home daily jobs so here I am. For a new job opportunity in my area I think the hourly rate and home time offered is much better than many other companies here.
