Any info on Tyson foods?

There is only one Tysons and that's here in Fayetteville Arkansas. It takes a while to load. But way better than some of the Ozark Chicken Houses that occasionally loaded.

I just leave you with one firm warning. If you aint been out here in the Ozarks, Crooked means BENT BAD. You will see signs slowing you to 5 in some places. And not even that.

Enjoy. You haul the chicken, I cook it.

 

Thank you for the Clarification. In Searcy we have what is called Smith Farms which can be seen from space with their hurge barns. I suspect on the order of 10 billion so far over the last 20 years. Not exactly sure who buys all their production sight unseen. But I would make a wild guess that McDonalds etc would be in a position to take care of them.

 

Pay is good at Tyson Foods. They will run you as hard as you want most of the time. Sometimes you wind up sitting waiting on production for a load or at a customer waiting to be unloaded. I average 2600 or better every week. I have been on Texas regional for 4-5 years now. Any questions feel free to ask.

 

I think truckrrpete works for Tyson

 

cargill has a good cafeteria. use to go inside and get me some food. you ever picked up that dog scraps in ice blocks there in springdale.

 

There are some plants in the boonies but not a big deal. I am on regional and average length of haul is around 350 -425 total miles. Dont get detention pay get a layover at $100 if you sit for 18 hrs or don't move 200 miles in 18 hrs. Have to deliver to some military bases that require us to tailgate the product but not often. Mainly fuel at loves, pilot/flying j but do have other fuel stops as well. Have heard otr is on fuel solutions but not sure as they started that after i went regional. You pay lumpers with comcheck. Otr gets $35 for 2nd p/u or 2nd drop there out on the load. Dont get paid for the first. Regional doesnt get extra for the first pickup of which we usually have only 1 pick, but we get paid $35 for each drop including the first unless it is a relay and thats the same wether its drop and hook or live unload. A lot of what we do is pick up at a pl plant and live unload at a customer. Do a lot of night driving with middle of the night early morning unloads
