    Stay away from Central Transport. I unfortunately worked for these guys for almost a year, and It was the worst company I have worked for. It is nice to work days and get home every night, but you always have to fight to get payed properly, and they do not maintain their equipment at all. I have a buddy who drive for Fed Ex freight doing line haul runs overnight. He says the money is great and they take decent care of their equipment. I hope this helps, please stay away from Central Transport, you will regret it.

    There is only one person who can make that decision for you.

    And posting the something more then once is irritating & most likely steer people away.

    What did you do? In 2006-07. I worked out of Kenosha, WI and worked the docks at Hammond, IN everynight.

    The only thing I didn't like was the young dock supervisors with ####y attitudes and the 15 hour days with my one hour commute. Other than that, I liked it. Probably because it was a change from OTR. I averaged about $1450 a week.

    For someone looking for a break from OTR, it's not a bad deal to make some quick money. I haven't found a company yet I want to stay with 20 years. Use em and move on.
