I worked with a couple who first drove for Stevens. Their biggest complaint with them,was they were never paid on time... They went 3 weeks once before they even saw a pay check.. The only thing that kept them going at the time, was they had a fat savings account.. They both got tired of it and eventually left after their first ys.. Nice looking trucks, doesn't always mean a good company to drive for.. I drove for Swift my first yr, and never once had they missed a pay date..
Bigowl Thanks this. -
So if Stevens is not a good company? What is a good reefer company for a student driver to start with? Thanks for the advice doubledragon5.

A friend of mine drove for Heartland for about four years. Says he was happy with them, but left them for a local gig.
However, I have no personal knowledge of them.
I guess I'm a bit curious as to why you want to pull a refer. Dry van is a heck of a lot less hassle!Bigowl Thanks this. -
The reason I prefer to pull a reefer is because I believe that there is more reefer freight out there. Even in slow economic time people still have to eat. Thanks for the advice Big Don.
