    I work out of the Pueblo DC. I'm dedicated local, home every night. Right now the freight is light. I normally run six days a week, but I'm down to five now. I think the refer guys are team only. They deliver to the Super Targets.

    I love it, all new equipment, all the miles we can run, home every other day, my DM's (I have 2 and a Fleet Manager) are excellent, I don't think I could come up with a better scenario for the short time I have been in the industry. I run dedicated reefers and cover California, Nevada, Utah, Colorado, Arizona, and New Mexico.

    Yup, that's the one I run on, we do only the Super Targets, and all our trucks are team or mentor trucks.

    It appears to me that most of the trucks I see in the DC yards are Dart trucks. Target is based in my hometown with a DC down the road, and Dart trucks are in and out of there around the clock. Judging by the other answers though it probably depends on the state where the DCs are located.

    At the present time, Middlesex Transportation of Dubois, Pa. pulls trailers for C&S Wholesale grocers who have a contract with Target for supplying their perishable products. However this March 2013, the contract will be taken over by Ruan.
