Tribe Express/Tribe Transportation

I'm glad my assumption was right, I live over near Buffalo and spend a lot of time over that way. I know we have a lot of regular customers in that area.

 

going the 30th to Ga. cant wait to stop hauling mail into Rochester NY and Buf. love my Nashua NH. run but I want to get back on the road for a great company and so far Tribe i think is that company

 

That's good to hear! Welcome aboard. If I'm by the yard that week I'll be sure to pop in and introduce myself.

 

i would drive by there trucks around the upstate ny area saying i got to look them up and then when i was on here you mentioned them to me on one of my threads thank you i to hope it works out WesternEmpire

 

Sounds like a good company, just put in my application. Can anyone tell me what freight lanes they run? and what is the average length of haul?

 

If I had to guesstimate I'd put the average length of haul in the 750-800 mile range.

Freight lanes are primarily GA to Chicagoland and GA to PA. Hazleton and Allentown mostly. Though I have seen freight from GA to Calgary and Florida to Washington and Oregon.

 

Dang...they would work out great for me, if...they would allow weekly home time. I live 12 miles from Hazleton and 30 from Allentown.

 

Yeah the 3 weeks minimum turns a lot of people off. Ido know Julie in recruiting has waived the 3 weeks minimum down to 2 weeks if the driver lives in a desirable place for freight. Don't know if that helps any.

 

Tribe are one of the best looking companies out there, but I don't understand why they only pay .39 cpm for experienced drivers.

 

It's no better than average, but you get guaranteed raises the first 4 years, top out at .45 cpm currently. Any load less than 400 miles loaded and empty is paid a straight $200, and benefits premiums are lowered every year until a person with single coverage pays nothing for medical after 5 years. I'm not saying it's perfect, but I personally think they're better than most.
