    This is not a reply. Just information on A.D. Have been with them for just over 3 years (otr). I cannot speak for the day drivers, it is my understanding they are union and make around $18 to $19 an hour. Is this company perfect? no but what company is? This is a very very good company to work for. I consistently bring home $ 1000 to $1500 a week. If i want next weekend off I just tell my DM (driver manager) and it is done without any problem. If your truck goes in the shop for repair that will be overnight you get a voucher to stay at the red roof inn or there drivers lounge has 4 very clean private rooms with 2 single beds in them if you just need to sleep for a few hours till your next load. Another tip. Do not wait for them to assign you a load if you have hours to drive CALL THEM! they have drivers that live all over the US and you can take a load to them to finish (relay). Now you did yourself a favor there is way more freight shipping if you are OUT of the state of Michigan. if you have questions you can contact me at btherain@gmail.com and will do my best to answer. This is a a very good company to drive for.

    Any drivers live in Michigan? I live about a half hour away from Canton and would like to know how often I can get home being that close to the terminal. Also, I work for prime as an independent contractor. I assume they're w2?

    If you could, can you pm me? I'm looking to switch over from prime by the end of the summer. I've already talked to Gary and he told me all that is left is to set up for orientation. They're being very good with me about giving me time to properly exit prime in the most professional way possible.

    Any updates from anybody on this topic? Been trying to find more than the 3-4 naysayers out of a bushel of happy drivers and can't seem to!! Lol
    Considering moving to a new company based out of my home state of MI. At the moment either AD or Grasmid.
    Thanks

    I went to ad, it's a great company, if you're near Canton you'll be home most weekends because most of our backhaul freight goes back to Michigan. They treat you well and it's not 100% forced dispatch
     
    Toona67 Thanks this.

    I currently live in the Pittsburgh area but am trying to find a way back home to the Grayling area up north. It is a bit of drive to Canton but they are advertising for that area right now on indeed so not sure.
    Thanks for the update.

    I don't get how a company can get you to run illegally, especially now that there's elogs
