Parkway Transport Inc. San Antonio Texas

I'm looking for companies to lease onto as an O/O. financing is nearly impossible even though my credit score is like 730 and I have good credit. I'll have to put a lot of money down which will take me about 4-6 months to save up for, So it looks like my best option right now is Parkway Transport Inc. in San Antonio Texas on their L/P program. They mostly do loads for H.E.B store chain, and hire only O/O. I've looked everywhere and I can't find any reviews on them besides their Facebook page. Which is almost a five. But we all know how that can be altered. If anybody works or has worked in the past for them, I would like to know if they are a good company to work for?

 

I started orientation with them today they hire drivers who live in Texas and in OK. They have Texas only and OTR. They are owned by HEB a Texas and Mexico supermarket chain. HQ is in San Antonio Texas. They are a Reefer and Dry Van company. They hire O/O only and they have a lease program with quality carriers in Waxihachie Texas. I'm doing the lease program. They use the quallcom but only for dispatching loads so you'll be using paper logs. There were 3 rehires in class today. One of them came back because the frac sand thing burst. I'll post updates as I go along.

 

Regular pay is .90 loaded or empty but from what the rehires told me you can get average of 3,000+ and that doesn't count the other stuff but we are talking to payroll Tuesday morning so they are going to give us the full break down.

 

I finished orientation. It went pretty well. I'm going for the lease purchase and right now there are slim pickings as far as trucks go. The only trucks that are available at the Waxihachie Texas location are prostars and volvos. It seems like prostars are what anybody has right now. I don't want a prostars because I had one before

 

stupid button posted my comments before I could finish. What I was staying is that I had too many repair issues with the prostars. So I'm just going to wait it out and keep calling the other locations until they get more trucks. You have to pay your own way to pick up the truck but the leasing company quality companies will pay for the fuel back to Texas when you get your truck. But if you have your own truck you should be ok. If you in a class with a few other people going for lease purchase you could all put your money together and go to the Texas location. Unless you want a prostar I'd advise you to wait for awhile before going to parkway.

 

I have to go to Fontana California to pick up my truck which is a cascadia. Quality companies who does the lease told me I don't have to worry about the hotel or transportation to the hotel. They told me since I'm coming to Fontana in the morning I be able to take the truck that same day, but I'm going to spend the night there anyway. They also put enough fuel in the tank so I can get back to Texas. I think I got hired just in time because the class next week has like 12 people. Their orientation class is normally under 10. I hope I won't have to wait too long to get my truck in service once I get back to Texas. I'll pose events as they happen.
