J.S. Helwig & Son

I could be wrong, but I believe he does not work at Helwig. He's talking about a different company. Helwig doesn't have fuel on their yard.

 

I forgot to give an update on here but I sold my truck last month due to my own personal problems. It had nothing to do with Helwig and I still recommend them for owner operators looking for consistent income.

Their loads are almost always over 1000 miles. If you get one that isn't, it usually leads to a place where you will get a load over 1000. A lot of them are 1300-1400 and sometimes get as high as 1800 if you run up to Maine. I easily got over 3000 miles a week pretty consistently. The fuel discounts are vague and you can't use their shop but the money going into my bank account made me happy. Like I said I just had my own personal problems. I was bad with my money and could never afford repairs on the truck. Ran up my credit card and then ended up getting a personal loan and that plus some other personal debt and paying for all my disabled mother's bills meant I just couldn't make it. I sold the truck for $12000 more than what I owed on it (still had 1.5yrs left on my loan) and that helped me pay off a good amount of debt so that I could go back to being a company driver and make enough to get by. I want to get my own truck again in the future having learned everything I did and try to be better with my money next time.
