    How did Carolina Cargo re-organize & change their hiring criteria?

    God bless every American and their families! God bless the U.S.A.!

    Jacked the pay way up for teams and now hire experienced drivers only with clean MVR.
    Teams can now make good money there doing California/Pacific Northwest turns every week.

    Maybe @farmerjohn64 could help you out....he's fairly new there. @otterinthewater used to be a trainer there, also.

    They have a 'kabosh' on hiring in MANY areas atm. They've gotten stricter, too; wouldn't take a guy w/a seatbelt violation in a PV, not too long ago.

    I was thinking Trans Am, also, O/P.

    Sure if you like working for free almost, or at least it’s what it feels like after 75% of my small paycheck is gone before I even see it lol I’d view Western Express as a stepping stone for new drivers/a second chance company, not somewhere I’d plan on retiring at, unless you go way up the ladder anyway
