Cypress Truck Lines updated info as of 10/28/13

Yes,

the pay is a little low.

That's probably why they are still in business being a florida outfit.

PLOOF..........I STILL HAVE A COUPLE OF THEIR ORANGE AND BLUE TARPS.

 

Thank you for this thread. I am a soon to be student who is looking to run flatbed and am looking at cypress as my #1 pick since they run out of tampa, where I live.

 

If you don't need a newer truck, or top pay........

you may find a forever home.

Let me know if Danny is still there.

Good Luck

 

They basically tarp everything, aside from steel beams and what not.

 

regional your looking more accurately at 1600-2000....2000 being a good week. 2500 is rare. for regional. husbands been through 6.....hes on his 7th truck now as of yesterday due to his last one having to be in the shop.....mist weekends hes home by saturday around nion...but we live in collins, ga. yes theres a lot of tarping and yes loads are more often than not heavy. not going out of my way to paint a bad picture just giving some accurate info based on his experience. hes been there for over a year.

 

You're not painting a bad picture, just an accurate picture which this site needs more of. Him being there over a year is what should speak to a lot of prospective drivers, even through the truck troubles he's still there which means there must be a good mix of things keeping him happy.

 

hes looking for a local job now but regardless, there have been a few times hes been able to come through and spend the night at home during the week. they have just recently started routing your runs but he doesnt go off their suggested routes all the time. theres pluses and minuses to every company though, just depends on your needs/wants.

 

Cypress does not have a load securement class. Yes they are getting some new equipment but all the terminals are junk yards. They clean the drivers shower room if you are lucky every couple of days. The only good thing about this company is they do try to get you home on the weekend. Beware and stay away from this company .

 

it aint nearly as bad at cypress as some think most just heard things from others i was there for awhile i was happy there made decent money and was home every weekend id still be there but i got on with conway freight if i ever need to id go back to cypress
