Hey ya'll, My hubby just got hired at ats, starts orientation on the 26th. Going to give the lease op a try. In the van division. His brother works here, owned his truck in less than a year, and says he's doing very well. Can anyone tell us what to expect at orientation? Or give any advice to us about buying a truck thru them and actually making it? Can anyone reccomend a good FM, or let us know if theres one to avoid lol? We are so nervous about this and do not want to fail. I know he's going to have to run like a hebrew slave for at least the 1st year. We are already used to doing this for the company he worked for for 2 yrs. Can anyone tell us about the trucks they offer? Im sorry for all the questions. But thanks to anyone who can be of any help in advance. Hope to see ya'll on the big road!

Anyone have news on how Anderson (ATS) trucking is?

Well there several threads in the dac reports.
Me I'm leased to them.
They have their good points and bad, but I'm happy here -
They also had a lot of claims, which cost ATS a good amount of customers.
BE ON TIME EVERY MORNING. Some people don't make it through orientation because they show up for the shuttle 5 minutes late, and it's gone. They don't send it back.
As big a waste of time as the WEEK LONG orientation is, it's also a test. Be on time, be clean, don't smart off in class, don't be disruptive, pat attention. There are written tests. Don't go out and get drunk. There's a bar right next door. Ignore it for now. You are there for a job.
My wife says I'm a type A personality though...whatever that is...
I don't believe this one bit, and don't think much of Mr. Berg, but that's what happens.
Best of luck. -
i was over there at one point of time left because wanted to try tanker changing was the worst turn i made im back over with them right now making 2,000 to 5,000 dollars a week solo and 3,000 to 5,000 a week glad i went back and as long a you ACCEPT the lloads you can make the same amount i make

I worked at ATS years ago as far as hauling the big stuff i.e. windtowers etc., unless you have previous experience in that section of the industry, you will start out as a regular flatbedder first, and they have a laddered system that after so much experience you move up to the next level. It takes years there to work your way up into the really big stuff.

They are the wind turbine blades for the windmills and yes you are correct, they are 110-135ft long.

How you are you guys doing at ATS either on the Company side or L/P side. Trying to decide between ATS or Lone Star as a Company driver. Any info will be helpful....pay, miles and home time???

You are correct.
