Colonial Freight Sysems...

Does anyone have any info on the company? thanks

 

I guess this must be an ok company since no one has anything to say about them??????

 

Where are they out of? No news can usually be considered good news.

 

is this the colonial out of knoxville tn?

 

yes they do have an office in Knoxville. owner op and lease company i think. Thay pull refer and containers out of the south.

 

is it colonial out of st louis?

 

They are out of Knoxville, TN. They are owner operator and lease purchase only. They do have a few company drivers but not many. I think they are about 360 trucks or so and they pay percentage and fuel surcharge. I have a buddy that drives for them and he loves it. He's been running 3000 miles a week even with frieght the way it is. I tried getting on with them and they wouldn't hire me because of a ticket I had 3 yrs ago, which tells me they are very picky. I haven't heard one bad word about them and I am going to try to get on with them again after I have some more experience. I would check them out and get the fine print on the lease. Its not for everyone but as long as they have miles its a good deal.

 

I am going to work for Colonial Freight lines on Monday. I've never heard any thing bad about them. I know they are a smaller company and you have to lease a truck from them. Anyone with any information about the company or the current situation with miles they offer would be appreciated.

 

The guys i talk to in St louis,MO told me its very bad and run away...No money,no freight...

They used to load were i loaded all the time....That was 3 months back when i seen them every week....

So do some more homework..Tell them you wanna talk to the drivers before you make the leap....The drivers will give you the ''real'' scoop
