Robert Bearden Inc (RBI)

Companies that require 2 yrs to work for I would say are one of the best.

 

never saw one that said,"snow experience". lol

 

That's because its rare that you will go up north... I think I've seen 3 loads offered over the QC that went north. One to MN and the other to MI(I think it was). Owens mills, MD is a semi-frequent run I see offered, but not sure if any drivers get put on mandatory northern runs or not.

 

Ya that puzzled me.I seen they needed southeast drivers.

 

I just got thur read a job posting for RBI. said looking for south east drivers. Thier pay is to low. I talked to the guy. Told me. yes. they need drivers out of mobile,Al. Thier short. and freight is picking up. Didnt say anything on snow driving.

 

I just put in an application. If I come across some new info, I'll post it ASAP.
But from what I've heard from their drivers, if you're lazy, then go to Swift. I've been I. The seat for 4+ years and learned QUICK that you gotta drive to make money. Use your clock wisely and you can make decent money almost anywhere.
Their equiptment seems nice and maintained, I've never seen their trucks stranded it sitting. From the outside looking in, their turn over is low and their freight is consistent. Not a lot of young drivers either so it looks like a "home" company. We shall see.

 

I have to pass RBI on the right(and the far left if necessary) more than frequently. THAT tells me plenty regarding what they actually hire. Interpret that any way you desire. I read somewhere that their trucks run 70 and if that is accurate,they have the slowest 70 mph trucks out there along with the middle lane cloggers i referenced above.

 

Just completed 1 year with RBI making 40cpm. Good equipment & good miles 80% drop ànd hook. Home weekly. Truck governed 67 slow? Bet that fast truck don't average 7 mpg loaded. All traffic where can u speed at?

 

Can any driver out there give me some info on RBI. Is their family insurance good? What is their CPM? I live 20 miles east of Gainesville Fl. how often would I get by the house during the week?I worked for Davis Ex. for 10 years and now do Food Service for the last 7. Thank you for any information.
