    No forced nights at any terminal. You are the captain of your ship. We have some drivers that choose a late gate time and some set run drivers that start anywhere from midnight through 8 in the morning. Their preference.

    That's cool.... I didn't realize they had 140 drivers out of the Valley.
    Hopefully I'll get a call and get a chance to interview. I'll admit- the more I learn, the more interested I am.

    Thanks for your help Guys!!

    They're not Walmart specific, just watch pre-trip videos in general to brush up on what a proper pre-trip entails.

    I have seen some posts where they forced you to transfer to a different dc because of having to many drivers at a certain dc and néeding drivers at another. Is this true they can do that?

    Here in w.coast we always end up in a different d.c after picking up from a vendor they balance it but you always back to your domicile d.c in time for your go home day

    They don't do that. You'll work OUT of different DC's sometimes for the whole week, but you stay where you get hired unless YOU put in for a transfer. Walmart invests great time and expense to hire a driver for a specific DC. Some drivers live far from where they get hired. I'm 4.5 hours from Tobyhanna. It's worth it, and I can stay or transfer, my choice. I'm staying.
