so looks like KLLM will be my choice

I wonder due they pay you if you have to wait for a truck.

 

To Money Baby: In response to your query , I was a company driver til the end of December then took the truck I was in as a lease purchase.

 

To all the new drivers I wish you a Happy and Prosperous New Year

 

Comment and observation. This last week I saw a truck 5 #'s past mine in the lease fleet. I would conclude that KLLM is at least able to get. trucks there. I will also comment that during christmas week KLLM made a major change on truck assignment for conpany drivers. (See elsewhere).

 

Re KLLM and some items . 1. Truck availibility. KLLM does have lease trucks available. Co trucks are considerabile tighter & there might be a wait.
2. Hiring areas yes KLLM does get accept drivers from Florida. The caveat is south of Orlando / Tampa due to a small amount of freight, one would have to deadhead(unpaid) north for loads. KLLM is not hiring co drivers out of Florida on account of this.
I will say this KLLM will always at least accept applications and ph calls to recruiting and times may change infuture.

 

Good luck with KLLM, just remember when you become dishearted with them, all companies aren't that crappy.

 

Each company have their ups and downs. So are worse then others.

 

Prof.: where exactely is "elsewhere"? Curious about the "major change on truck assignment for company drivers" and just what you were referring to.

Thanks for all your input.

 

can anyone tell me if kllm is a good company to work for

 

It's working for me. I like it much better since I'm on the midwest regional. I'm sure there are better companies, but I can promise you there are much worse.
