Morehouse/FCC

I've skimmed through this thread, looked on indeed reviews and wn morehouse's facebook page and website. A few questions, feel free not to answer if you don't have time:

1. Do they hire out of NC, specifically out of the greater Charlotte area?

2. Where do they fuel and are the fuel solutions forced or fuel wherever as long as it's an approved stop? And do you/can you feel at Loves (that's my preferred fueling stop and where I like to park for the night)?

3. APU? Inverter? Fridge?

4. It says on their website no east coast. I'm assuming they meant by "east coast" the "northeast" right? And At the start of the thread it was mentioned going to New Jersey. In what world is New Jersey not part of the Northeast, lol? I guess what I'm asking is what are their typical running lanes and is any of the 5 NYC Burroughs forced? And how often are you in the Northeast north of the Ohio/Virginia/West Virginia lines?

I am inquiring as a company driver so not sure if that affects what are the normal running lanes. I'm sure plenty of O/O would avoid the Jersey area and maybe the company drivers get stuck with those loads, I don't know?

5. What's hometime policy? X amount of days off for X amount of days/weeks driven, no strict hometime policy, what is it?

6. Do they give you time on the loads or are you having to start your day exactly once your 10 hour break is up? Do they allow 34 resets on the road if you want one?

I saw on their Facebook page they are starting drivers out at $0.60 CPM. Bzinger said in another thread on this forum (he said it within the past week) that they were thinking about raising it to $0.62 CPM base pay. That's good money. Almost LTL money.

 

Alright, thanks. If anyone else wants to give a more detailed reply and answer what bzinger didn't get to, it would be appreciated but if not that's fine too. This helps a little. They're not very specific about the questions I asked on the website/facebook/online reviews so I thought I would ask here.

 

He’s asked the same questions on a dozen different threads so hopefully he’ll find what he’s looking for.

 

You're not doing any babysitting. Good Lord. I asked the same questions for 5 companies, Magnum, Danny Herman, FCC, Holland and now Morehouse. It wasn't a dozen companies that I asked questions on like bm58 stated. This is a trucking forum. So I come here to ask trucking related questions by people who are already writing in the company thread (like this one). That is the purpose of a trucking forum. To use it for useful information. So that's what I do.

Yeah thanks I hope so too, I hate switching jobs. I ask these questions on a trucking forum because once you contact the recruiter then the recruiting game begins and if you wait to long to make a decision the recruiter might not want to deal with you anymore. So I think it's best that I narrow down the companies as best I can and do my research, rather than spamming applications.

Oh and by the way some of the companies that I listed mention on their website exactly what their equipment (APU, inverter, fridge) have so I didn't ask those types of questions in the other threads if I could already find the answers for them.

anyways thanks for the response to some of my questions bzinger.
