Forward Air Freight

see them running. Have a friend that had to sit due to preventables that is now a dispatcher for them out of Columbus. Have you hit thier website? Maybe tried to grab a driver at a truck stop?

What are you looking to find out? I'll ask my friend his impressions?

 

I know a guy that has two trucks on with them, one does a dedicated fl-nj-fl the other runs open board, he does well enough to have considered a 3rd but with fuel and economy so uncertain he has held off so far. I know the deidcated is home every week unless they want to pull a weekend run too, and of course of there is one available. Orl, dal, col, atl and a few others are the big areas to live in and should keep you busy. I'm not sure what it pays but it's per mile and depends on which fleet you choose. I'd call, they really don't gain anything bringing you on to have you leave so I would guess their pretty up front. It is air freight/expedited ltl so it will depend on freight trends of course, but then again, so does everything else in TRUCKING!!! Good luck.

 

I called them and asked them about home time and she told me 3 weeks out and no I cant be home every week,made it easy to cross them off my list.

 

I know the open board guys get in every 2-3 weeks but that was agreed upon b4 hire and also to maximize earning potentail. The other truck had been on a dedicaed for quite some time but I'm not sure how often or when the dedicated runs become available. I hear they are offered but not sure to whom and why if you get my drift....
I would guess all terminals are different too but if my buddy's right it's a first in and out with choice of direction and future needs of the company taken into consideration.
