Cherokee Freight Lines: Stockton, CA

Cherokee Freight Lines is based out of Stockton, CA and hauls primarily food-grade products. They do a lot of hauling for Bronco Winery out of Ceres, CA. If you've ever drank two-buck chuck, chances are the grapes were hauled on the back of a Cherokee Freight Lines trailer.

They haul a lot of tankers--hauling wine. They hire like crazy in the Central Valley during the grape crush. They are a Union company with excellent benefits and fair pay. They like to hire from within. If you do a good job in the grape season, you could find yourself working full-time in a Union position.

Drivers, get at me and post your experiences with this company.

 

Oh oh, you guys don't have *anything* to say about Cherokee?

 

It's probably because they knew they were well-paid and in a secure position, and that's why they were arrogant.

 

I was actually working at bronco wine company in ceres for a minute. Drop and hook and process double trailers of grapes all day.. so as a Cherokee employee we had a contract with the winery. Grape drivers pulled in hella bank , like 1200 a week net pay I was told I have a permanent slot wairing for me before next grape crush starts. Anyw as ys I don't think cherokee has a dirt lot in ceres but they do 99 percent of the loads on site at Bronco and their lot is dirt and is really huge.
