Quality Carriers

Those are sad numbers for local.
Is 155 corporate?
Where is term 155

 

So I will sound stupid but I'm going to ask it anyway. Is an affiliate terminal something similar to a franchise?

 

Yup.

 

Craigslist, just went thru it Just for the hell of it. But found out
Up here QC has bunk pay, I never got that and hourly for most everything not driving.
Edit, just seen your attachment

 

QC is headquartered out of Tampa, FL but it operates as a hundred or so terminals. I am told the work conditions vary tremendously from terminal to terminal. I work on a dedicated account from the Nashville, TN terminal. Our pay is 49/39 cents per mile loaded/unloaded. We only pull hazmat for one customer to wherever those customers are located. The vast majority of our work if back and forth to Charlotte and Charleston with regular trips to PA near Youngstown, OH. Then we have several regular warm weather customers out West.

You need to talk to drivers at the particular terminal you will be working out of. A few years ago the main company started buying up "affiliated terminals" which means bringing them back inside the company which standardized certain things at those terminals. I was told you want to work at QC terminals and not affiliated terminals. But I don't know any details.

I like the company, but I only see my tiny part of it. Our terminal is a new terminal with new automatic Freightliners that are pretty nice with free satellite TV, ELDs, and PeopleNet which is kind of like Qualcomm. I would go to the main web site and search for the dropdown list of terminals. Then I would call the 800 number and get the local number for the terminal manager at whatever terminal you are interested in working at. Get the terminal manager to have a driver at the terminal contact you so you can ask questions. I don't have any real complaints. But I only see one terminal out of the company, so you need more info than I can provide.
