Kelles transport???

Sorry, had a problem with my phone. From what I've seen, KTS is mostly hands off. As long as you know how to use the Qualcomm, drive the truck, and get the load to it's destination, they don't care about much else. They can see the truck's location at all times, and will occassionally ask for eta to see if they need to reschedule appointments or swap loads with nearby drivers. Everything is done through the Qualcomm. Send a message for Pre-trips, Arrive at Shipper, Depart Shipper, etc. It's pretty easy once you get the hang of it. My husband just got his dad signed on, and he's loving it. He had trouble with the Qualcomm at first, but he's good now.

 

If you would like, you can send me your first and last name, email, and phone number, and I will have my husband call his recruiter. He can get you hired (They love him there. Lol) His dad doesn't have the best record, and he got hired. As long as you have 6 moths verifiable experience, you should be able to get hired right away. They will fly you out Southwest, and put you in a room for the 2 day orientation.

 

Oh good! Orientation is 2 days, you get dispatched the 3rd day. Pick out your truck on 2nd day, I believe, as soon as UA test results come back. Hotel shuttle will pick you up from the airport, and take you to orientation both days. I wasn't there, so I can't tell you exactly what they tell you. They go through the Drivers handbook, get direct deposit situated. I don't advise it, but you can get your paycheck on your Comdata card. Nick (equipment manager) will do a drive test. You can float the gears. My husband said everyone is very friendly, and goes in to say hi when he's in SLC. I think he got to meet everyone in the office during orientation. There's free wifi, if you need it. Lol. They will route you home to get your stuff if you need to. You may load at Dannon, which is drop and hook. Here's a tip: the pickup number they give you is rarely the actual pickup number, so make sure you write down all the numbers in the load information. They are usually at the bottom,in additional information.

 

If you'd like to get a head start you can find the KTS driver handbook online. Also, they offer a week paid vacation after a year.

 

Sorry, I'll have to ask my husband tomorrow, he's already asleep. They have a list of yards in every truck binder. The truck he was in before the 2017 was a 2013, but that was one of the oldest they had. It was a truck they had acquired from Specialized Express, not one of their own, and I believe they were selling all of their old trucks at the time.

 

Lol.. Yes, same thing with my husband. That's probably why he loves it so much. You'll never have a problem with buying fuel, or taking it to the shop.
