    The only other Central LTL wise that I know of is Central Freightlines out of Waco Texas, they expanded into the west by buying a freight company called Vecta back in the early 2000s.

    They still pull them. I’ve seen one in Wisconsin about a month ago on I-39 I believe.

    Now that I think of it, I'm not sure they did ltl work. I know they went out of business in the 90's, but I was too young to remember much about them.

    Honestly I don't know. I was too little to know what trucks they ran.

    I was dropping my paperwork off at the office this morning and I noticed an "Incident Action Report" on the TM's desk.....the "incident" was a driver calling in sick and not being able to complete his run. Now what kind of company does this?

    If it's the yellow trucks and trailers based out of Michigan then dont do it. I worked there for 3 days. Flat tires every other day. Hose clamps work well to hold the doors shut. After your cut time on the dock you are kicked off but he wanted me to keep working with no pay. It was a massive joke. Equipment is terrible.
     
    Bob Dobalina and Komissar Thank this.

    The little small driver on 1099 is responsible for taxes, withholding etc.

    The company could care less about taking that out.
