Falcon Transport, Good or Bad?

My husband has been looking at them.
We went to his career day yesterday and have to say we were not impressed at all. The guy was not very up front about their home time but he was honest enough to say that if you want to make the $$$ don't go with Falcon.

 

I have Falcon on the side of my truck right now, but I work exclusively through an Agent hauling pretty decent freight. My only complaint right now is making to much money. I’m going to be forced to buy a new truck because I need the tax write off or my current truck needs to start breaking.

 

Is Falcon localed some where in NW ohio? I think they take newbies so good luck

 

Ok this is interesting.
What got us interested in falcon was that a few weeks back a person who works for them said "Oh yeah I was home every night. But I have a family with kids and the pay wasn't enough so I went otr."
Still we were interested in hearing about the local runs.
So comes career day and the guy says that you can start getting local runs after about a year. He did also say too, that if you're looking to make the $$$ Falcon is not the company to go with.


I told my husband if you're going to have to do regional or otr, anything that takes you away from home, go with the company that will pay the best and ensure your safety. Falcon is telling us they can start giving you local runs in about a year, but you can get your time in with a company that may pay better and then start looking for something local anyway.

 

Ok thanks I thought that they were in the Findlay,oh or Toledo,oh area

 

I was going to post again the other day but was just about to walk out the door.
I think I spoke when I shoulda shut my trap and read your profile. From what I gather you've been trucking for a while. My husband will just be graduating, which, it is very possible would make a big difference in offers. Nevertheless, thank you for the response.
