deBoer Transportation, Inc. - Blenker, Wi.

How will the equipment be better? deBoer is fanatical about maintaining there equipment. Also, what do you mean about a training company? Do you mean that's all there good for or that they train?

 

I nor anybody at deBoer never said there equipment was top of the line. I never saw a truck that was above 700k. I agree that some of the trls are in bad shape. That being said I've been to lots of drop yards and I've seen crappy trls from every company. Again, deboer does do a lot of paper loads, I think paper mills are good places to pick up because most will let you sleep on the grounds and they are very large places.

I really don't know what you mean by hammered, actually I'm having a hard time figuring out what any of this means.

Yea there is rail freight, and it can be short. That being said usually that same day you get a better load. Also, you get paid extra for rail-loads. I think it's like 70 bucks, since they only take a few hours at most this is good pay.

 

Then start your own Knight thread.
Yea I guess I need to get more seasoned cause I still don't know what hammered means, never heard of it. The only thing I can think of is that some loads are hammered down to the floor, but I really don't think that is what your talking about.
Obviously you do not like deBoer and that's okay but I do. I think they have the best people working for them and I will continue to say so.

 

I and everyone I have ever heard on the C.B just calls it pulling heavy, but whatever it doesn't matter. I agree that the Texarkana bunkhouse sucks but they just built a new one in Wisconsin that is like a motel. Not just paper loads are heavy, I've hauled lots of other stuff that was real heavy as well. I do not seem to understand your problem with paper mills. I think the are great places to pick-up and deliver. There big, always have people on hand and usually let you sleep on the lot. So it's heavy, again so is other stuff.
They bought my class lunch during orientation, but maybe that was just my luck.
One more thing, I have never had a trailer rejected at any paper mill.

 

I say they are good because they are. If you think they are not then so be it. I never had my truck break down. Please use spell check.
