    I've lived here 20 years and can honestly say I've never heard one bad thing said about them... CFI or Conway. I've never dealt with them much in shipping / receiving since the companies I've worked for couldn't "afford" them (i.e. cheapskates)... but it was always a special treat having them on the dock when the brokers used them.

    Definitely all that you mentioned. You can tell they are a "first class" operation when they hit the dock... very professional. When dealing with companies like Werner and Covenant day in and day out like I used to... the difference is like night and day. :yes2557:

    As you all know with Conway... company image is EVERYTHING. I've dealt with Conway's LTL division on a daily basis and their LTL drivers have impressed me more than any others. They definitely do not hire just anyone and they know their business VERY WELL.

    VMaggs: do you have work shoes or boots with you, or can I make do with regular tennis shoes? I've got steel toe boots but they're a bit heavy and I don't want to bring them to training and finishing if I don't have to. Also have 33 in rolling duffle bag. Too big?
