    I am curious about 4 companies that I can only find old posts about, or no posts about, and I am curious if anyone works for them that can shed some light on them(good or bad).

    The 1st is Larsen Trucking out of MI....there is a few post I have found, but nothing really recent. An ad I saw claims $60-$75k/year, APU trucks etc.

    The 2nd is Harris Quality out of NE. Claims top wages over $70k, O/O spec'd trucks and no northeast. I have found some older post about them, mostly saying they keep you out months at a time and you need multiple logbooks to keep up with their dispatching.

    3rd is Great Lakes Cold Logistics, not sure from where. I have found NOTHING other than 1 mention of them as far as drivers opinions. Only thing I have found is some of their warehouse and office staff posting reviews on Indeed.

    4th is Jones Logistics out of MS. They have multiple divisions from log hauling to pipe hauling to a dedicated for Echo...I am mostly interested in the Echo dedicated.

    Let's not turn this into a bash-fest please. I am just doing some job recon from drivers who may have worked there as far as likes or dislikes. I take what I read with a grain of salt and would rather get my info from people who put the butt in the seat.

    Thanks in advance.

    Ok first is how long you been driving and what you want to make per mile. Harris Quality starts experienced drivers at a low rate about the same as c r england.

    Try searching "Larsen." Larson is a different company.

    Have you tried Van Eerden or Van Kampen out of Grand Rapids, MI? They both run really nice trucks.

    How about Britton Transport? I nearly went to work for them a few years ago. I've heard good things about them.

    Lot of teams, too. They do have solo positions, but primarily coast runs.

    I forgot to mention, and I don't have it on my personal info, I live in the trucking black hole...aka FL. A lot of companies don't hire out of there...but I have seen ads for each of the 4 at one time or another.
    In my zip code.
