    Just a separate thread to post a HUGE, HUGE alert. This company is advertising right now for O/O, drivers. No one should sign on with them as an O/O or driver. For shippers, also this would be a good one to avoid. To say, "Run away-screaming!" is an understatement. Bad, bad, bad news.

    Why what happened? I've seen their loads posted but never hauled any. Did they not pay you or something?

    Definitely some oddities in that area for folks. On the whole, just sort of a strange, distorted, chaotic Picasso-esque kind of way to run a trucking company. Weird, really, really weird. Trucking in an alternate universe?

    So they do things differently ... If that is your reasoning to being so against them as your op states .. Then you don't have much of an argument ... So, do you have a good reason one should avoid this company??

    Dear gokiddogo-$, safety, abuse, accuracy of paperwork/dispatches, honouring the required hours of service/sleep, timing multiple pickups so that there is not going to be a conflict with sleep time & hours of service rules, getting paid on time, getting a statement ........ For owner operators, or drivers, this company is very risky. Sadly, in this business good companies are extremely rare. Hope young folks stay well away from the trucking industry.

    Last winter when I ran Ontario I saw three different ones in the ditch that appeared to just wandered off road .. Doesn't surprise me that they cheat logs .. They pull a lot of bison trailers I'm surprised that bison lets them . I guess low bidder get the work

    Amazing what you can learn at a BBQ with a bunch of truckers. iHaul has broken high security seals of trailers and reordered cargo onto other vehicles, when major producer has assumed that it will go intact, with seal intact, on one trailer to designated drop. Apparent accounting irregularities in the payment of wages and subcontractor pay, and pay statements. Missing pay simply stolen. Holy Moley, this is one bad actor.
