Swift/Walmart Dedicated accounts

Like I explained, it’s usually because I see Walmart driver pulling reefer once awhile, or bring an mty reefer trlr to our DC. It doesn’t happen often but it does. Nothing is 100 percent. But rarely will you be doing GM.

 

Porterville ca. Did it for 2 weeks. Swift doesn't have the acct there.
Just used for added help.

 

I did surge at McCarran about six months ago and it was nothing but reefer.

 

Wrong

 

Whats bad about helping with Walmart reefer loads ?just curious because im suppose to be signing up doing a dedicated walmart account for swift out of Pottsville pa

I hated doing them and always refused doing Walmart.. cant speak for moose but the reason why I did not do them..

1. It's 2020 and they still do that stupid sticker crap...(take the sticker with the store number and pallet number off the pallet put it on the back of paper)

2. Another headache to have to worry about the freaking reefer...

3. You going to be doing a lot of New Jersey back hauls back to porterville...

4. Porterville is to close to new Jersey lol


Also found out from a Walmart driver..in a lot of areas they (Walmart) are taken over the grocery DC and just keeping it strictly in house no outside carriers...they starting in the west coast..

 

Ok gotcha hopefully my experience over thier would be a little better then what youve had to experience yeah i cant believe it myself im resorting to doing reefer loads again haha lol i hate reefer loads so on that accountt im guessing its all live unloads ?

 

And when you say porterville you mean porterville new york? or porterville PA?

 

In addition to what Luse said, I have never been trained on refers. I haven't the slightest clue how to work the things, not to mention what to do if something goes wrong.

All they ever said to me was... It'll be fine. Just get it to the store ASAP.
