R&L or Dayton Freight?

I work at r&l, just turned 4 years. I would not tell any one to work here. I work out of china grove and every day is a cluster you know what...and yes it has gone down hill a lot. this company will never be one of the top freight haulers no matter how much bs they spew......

 

Tell us about the pay and really fast trucks.

 

Sorry, it was in the R&L Carriers System Driver thread. I probably just woke up and went immediately into conspiracy theory mode...

 

All then brand new trucks at that.. my buddy driving trucks 2000 miles on them. And never even breaks or hooks his sets 90% of the time

 

Well thats unfortunate, I was gonna apply there in a week or so...been doing my research and came across this post. Was hoping to get out of this otr gig and do local, my circumstances and military obligations just don't mesh with being gone weeks at a time anymore..

 

R&L should be at the bottom of the list of LTL carriers you should apply to. They pay no overtime and they make you buy your own hand trucks and pallet jacks out of your own pocket. Basically the Swift of LTL.

 

There's one in AZ like that, no OT and 18/hour. Advertising a lot.

 

Why the hell would you buy a pallet jack?

 

if you pulled a liftgate everyday, you would know why. when you have your own tools and take care of them, you have good operating equipment to make the job easier.rather than a beatup old pallet jack off the dock.
