    My wife and I have been team driving for 3 years. I was wondering if anyone has experience with or knows someone that does with Barracuda Logistics. Thank you.

    Yes they do, And they offer free health ins, they have dental and vision not free and a 401k. So it doesnt sound like your typical 1099 deal.
    So who knows if their are legit or not? Dont know

    Would be wise to do a lot research and ask lots of questions. But from what I’ve seen people on here say run. I could be wrong.

    Honestly, just an informed opinion, I'd run from anything from the Chicago group.

    Might be 100%, might not. Chances are, might not.

    • Barracuda Logistics LLC's key principal is DJORDJE POPOVIC
    • The contact number on their website is Michigan area code. Sounds like another eastern european Chicago company, I could be wrong, but I would dig a little deeper on them.

    Thank you. I looked at ODFLs website and it doesn't look like they're hiring drivers right now. I read that freight is slowing down and LTL is getting hit hard.
