    Yeah, I came off home time to a piddly 345 mile run up to Halls in NJ. Not real happy.

    Last time that I was there ended up waiting 24 hours + on the weekend. They gave me a bad confirmation#. And they close on Saturdays.

    @GShock75 ... I want to chime in about @Chinatown ... a few years back I was a total newbie and was looking for a “good company” ... he gave me like 5-6 companies and I contacted maybe three of them ... all were good quality companies and I valued his help.

    So tell your friend that she has a gentleman with lots of knowledge about many trucking companies ... (yes @Chinatown I called you a Gentleman... DEAL WITH IT... she need not know the truth) ... and while it’s true not every good company is a good match for every good driver... she has a good source of help.

    Stay Safe,
    MD

    Had the right info. (Thankfully!) Was unloaded in 2 hours and sitting here until tomorrow because my backhaul doesn't pick up until 9 am tomorrow 10 miles away. Yay! :(
     
    Silverdriver and Finfn1372 Thank this.
