    Can someone let me know when CR England is moving to Mexico? They are closing operations and leaving. My husband will not stay with them if this is the case...

    They're probably just opening a division in Mexico.
    Swift has had a division there for decades.

    I read about it a long time ago.
    The division is named Trans-Mex.

    The photo on the right is an old M.S. Carriers photo. Swift bought M.S. Carriers a long time ago and integrated it into Swift. Still see some M.S. Carriers trailers around and that one in the picture is in Mexico.

    Yep. Trans max picks up and deliver loads to swift terminal and and dropyard at the border.
    We just had to do a good pretrip when picking up trailers from the dropyards. Always missing Glad hand seals and lights

    That is standard operating in those areas if you want to keep them on trailer, stop for a short time that stuff just magically is gone.

    My employer wants to do away with us drivers and has stated as much - our union hasn't represented us in nearly 20 years so we could really give a d amn at this point. Can't get enough outside contractors interested in moving any appreciable amount of product and using our Mexican division to move product into and around America/Canada wouldn't work - reaching retirement shortly.....

    Retirement is wonderful. I chose a nice warm place and right now in Las Vegas it's 106 degrees/humidity 9%/wind 5 mph. Just completed about a 2 mile brisk walk and barely damp in the armpits. Palm trees everywhere, nice neighbors, just a wonderful place to retire.
    No state income taxes.
    No food taxes.
    Here's my view of the Las Vegas Strip from where I live. That's as close to the strip as I care to be. 15 minute drive on a good day though if desired.
