    Started in the first week of April and it has been great thus far. They have new trucks being delivered every week. Some get a new truck out of orientation and some don't. The ones who don't are told to expect a new truck soon. I have a 2014 Volvo day cab with a Cottrell High Rail and I am told that is the oldest truck in the fleet. It's a good truck but it came with a little wear and tear that I inherited. I have had to work out a boat load of problems. I'm just now getting it to where it should be. Unless I can get a Volvo with a High Rail I prefer to old on to what I have. They also have a great maintenance Dept.

    I had also had to learn my routine all over again because my experience is with chains and portable straps and I haven't hauled cars since 2013. Most of my experience is running out west where you can get away with a lot more height but here in the Ohio and Baltimore region we have to stay close to 13' 6." This sometimes requires hard ties with trucks. Every driver that I have asked help and advice from here at Moore has been most accommodating. The people in the office have not been pushy or micromanaging at all. I have ran into several drivers here that used to drive for Cassens and they love it. They also have a full insurance package single or family and you pay $0. I stay in a hotel every night using Corporate Lodging and I am home on the weekends.

    Pay here is $1.35 per mile at 350 miles or less and $1.10 at over 350 miles. Lordstown pays $1.50 per mi.
    Gary Moore (The owner) came over to introduce himself and he was a good guy to talk to.
    When you call Moore, they don't ask you your truck number. They know you by name.

    I thought full family coverage didn't start till 6/1. Otherwise the driver and siblings are covered and your spouse is $147 a week.

    Wasn't trying to run you off MooneyBravo I actually am interested in hearing about Moore. I've had a few co-workers, or ex co-workers now go there.

    Doesn't sound like a bad place. There a little to heavy in FCA traffic for me. Really interested to see how that's going to work out when the plants in UAWs contract start going down. Those pretty viper red trucks have payments that'll still need to be made.

    I've been keeping me eye on them. I think they are just the new thing. I forsee rates going down after they settle down.

    Ok, I'm not sure about the specifics but I do know for sure that the program was implemented. There is a waiting period of 60 days I believe whether single or family. You can contact Moore.

    I have been in touch a lot with Moores people. In my Facebook group there are several of their people. I'm impressed with what their doing. Look at auto transport everything on Facebook and you will see a ton of info on them and several of their people are chatting in the group also.
