FINALLY DECIDED

I went to work for Werner, with experience and a break in driving. I started on the Family Dollar account.
You will not make the .40 cpm. With experience they still wanted me out with a trainer for the full training time.
Paid 350.00 a week. And if you are looking at no touch freight, you will not find it on any of the "dollar" accounts.
I agree with China...stay away from them. There are many others to choose from.
Good luck to you what ever you decide and keep the shiny side up and the wheels tween the ditches.

 

I understand Crete has changed a great deal since I worked for them...for the better...I hear.
The only other companies I have worked for are Andrus out of Saint George, UT. No touch and 11 western, I do not think they would be the fit for you, since you are out of FLA. Great company tho.
I currently work for Pride Transport, I am on the dedicated fleet so I never leave the west. but they do have national fleets that go everywhere, no touch. I don't know if they hire out of your area or not. They treat me great.

 

You won't touch freight at reefer/refrigerated companies these days. Elogs will finish off that with the few companies that did require drivers to handle freight.
Of course there are exceptions, such as with a company like Florida Beauty Expess where you deliver live plants and may have 20 stops between Miami and California, but at least you get paid extra for each stop, so the paycheck will be pretty large.

 

A coast to coast reefer outfit would be the answer then. Contract Freighters would probably be good also; it's dry van coast to coast.

 

@Ssand Man are you still with Freymiller? If so give us a rundown on how it's going now.

 

You are in Fl.?? Look into food grade tanks. They will definitely get you all over the country and you never touch the product EVER. I honestly dont know if any of the Florida tank outfits hire newbies though. @Chinatown??

 

Yes, I'm still at Freymiller.
A run down, actually, they are running me hard. Just the way I like it. I've already been out for a month,and have run recaps the last 3 weeks. We now have guaranteed detention pay. I don't know what to add?? My boss knows I'm a hard runner, and he's running me.
I still have no complaints here.
