This sounds like AW Transport in Homer Glen, IL, not AW Transportation, Bedbuggers from Florida. Even their pictures online show stripped-down Ryder rentals with steel wheels.

And any time all the reviews come in batches, beware (in this case, 3-4 months ago, 7 months ago, and 3 years ago). That means they instructed folks during those times to fluff reviews for an incentive.

If you are crazy or desperate enough to sign on, take pictures because they will say you didn't return the equipment to Ryder, although Ryder is aware they have it. Insurance fraud comes to mind, they have so many fake reviews, and not one single bad review because they work to delete them. Do not work or lease from them. They DO NOT own any equipment. RYDER lets them lease trailers and trucks. You've been warned, I ran with them for five weeks, and lost over $400 from deductions.

My experience working with them was great . I done company making 75 cpm before I left . I had medical problems and had to take a leave of absence. I work local now and too be honest I miss working for them . They treated me like a human being and I got paid 24 hours after I delivered a load . I made 120k working for them in years time. I didn’t do the lease but as a company driver I idled 24 /7 never heard a bad word for it. They kept me moving running from Florida to Washington state to Arizona to Vegas back to the east coast . Honestly it felt like old school real long haul trucking .

$1000 escrow has become pretty common in the industry. Do what your supposed to do, and you will get the money back when you quit.

I worked a lot of jobs including jb hunt, crete carrier, usa truck. Not one of these American companies ask for an escrow! As a company driver, you’re not require to give anything as you don’t own the truck. If they ask you to pay for that then you must be working for an immigrant company! They bringing their practices from their country over here and doing that scam. I won’t work for anymore immigrant companies especially out of the Chicago area! Sorry man….. it’s NOT a standard practice!
