Talking to Swift recruiters about Flatbed

I was told when I was concerding SWIFT that if you go flatbeds and there is no loads you can pull vans keep that in mind

 

Yes, you can, provided you have a place where you can drop the flatbed and pick up a van. If you're in a place with no flatbed freight, they're not going to want you to leave one of the trailers there. But I did have to take a couple van loads when I ran for their flatbed division, yes. And I was happy as all hell to get rid of those things and get back to a respectable trailer, too.

 

Eden shut down when they lost the Miller account.

 

Ah. Hadn't heard about that. I just heard that they'd started moving OTR boards to Greer and Richmond and kept it solely for the Miller account for a bit, then they shut it down.

 

I spent the night there once. I delivered some empty bottles to Miller and bobtailed to the employee parking. There was 2 mechanics that worked out of there doing road calls.

For sale sign out front.

 

I dropped sixty pounds in my first three months and feel much better. Good luck too you.

 

Why not pick up the phone and call their recruiters? You will make buttloads more money there than you will at Swift. You can probably make $10-15000 more than with Swift.

My sweetie's son has a truck driving friend that worked there. He told me he could be home almost ever weekend unless he wanted to stay out. He quit due to getting a local job+he had 2 young kids at home.
