    Most personal type informational changes you have to make at a Kiosk, you can not do payroll changes online.



    I am happy with Swift. Because I had a lot of experience, (i pulled a milk tanker for a decade), I stepped right into a dedicated account, ten minutes from my home and a drop yeard with a mechanic and a kiosk is also ten minutes away. I really like my dedicated customer. Off weekends, high mileage, great pay, no touch freight, great benefits and my unit is always parked in my yard!.

    I don't care what speed my truck goes, it's brand new! I don't care what name is on the side of the truck or trailer, I have 11 years driving experience and Swift fills all my needs. No one EVER calls me, I talk to no one but my customers, everything is electronic, checks are direct deposited into alloted accounts in the percentages I chose, I have a dashboard camera to cover my buttski and a great rider policy. Could not ask for a better situation. Maybe not the best company, in the opinion of others, I don't care about that either.

    I have two boys 13 & 11, and I am home most nights and weeks. Nuff said.

    Bee Well

    Thinking my time here is coming to an end. Just not to fond of the policy about leaving the truck at terminal for 3 days off. Having my wife drive over a 100 miles to get me and then anouther 100 miles home. It's just a pain to have to unload all ur crap and come back load it all back in a different trk, check peits get everything u need that's not on the next truck. I don't know.
