Maverick Transportation

I must be in the A group then! The most I have made with them is $1200 after taxes. Several times I have taken home over a grand. I reckon it all depends on where you live and if you make your picks and drops on time.

 

you know i have been with maverick for over a year and have never been told every drop has to be done before 10 am. the only one i have been told has to be dropped before 10 is your 1st drop of week and that isn't set in stone. i have asked to drop later and even had receivers want it later

 

hey notarps i sure would like to know where the team your talking about hide out because more often than not, i watch maverick drivers take off without any intention of helping you with anything

 

Just about everywhere I go, someone helps me or I help them. I told a guy the other day I would have helped him tarp, but I was pushing to get somewhere. I could tell he was new. He said no problem. Even when I go to truckstops there is always a mav that comes up and talks to me. Hmmmm. what are you doing to scare off all these drivers?

 

I met daytona45 in the NLR yard last week. Nice meeting people you post with!

 

i am not doing anything to these drivers. i am not saying all drivers are not sociable or offer help but more often than not they bail

 

I don't know driver. Most that I run into will help other mav drivers.

 

I would never walk buy anyone and not offer a hand if they look like they needed it that is just my nature and the way I was raised.The key is if I have the time.Everyone keeps telling me freight is slow but I seem to be running my ### off and I haven't sat for more then 30 minutes anywhere without being under a load.

 

When I was tarping this nightmare load friday. A mav driver pulled up beside me and asked me if I wanted help. I told him thanks, but it is friday this is our run to the house. Go on home and enjoy your weekend. I will be OK.

 

I have been with Maverick since 1998 and am currently trainning drivers. I agree that when it was a smaller company, drivers helped each other more. My students and I always help other drivers with there tarps wether they a Maverick or not. If you want to change how things are done at Maverick and the attitude of the drivers, it all starts with you. I can't control what others do, but I can make a differance with another driver, and that's what counts the most.
