Wilson Logistics PNW

The reason I added PNW to the title is because I'm with the heavy haul division, and we only haul in WA/OR/ID/MT/UT.

After driving locally for 25 years, I've found myself working and staying in the truck during the week. I can say with some certainty that I have ended up in a pretty good place that I can stay with, at least for awhile.

They treat me very well, whoever I speak with on the phone (driver managers, safety, maintenance) is helpful and pleasant (even when I screw up). As far as I know, the pay is decent: .50 per mile, deadhead, detention, local add-on, and $63 per diem for every day on the road.

Wilson has been purchasing 50 new tractors per month, both Pete 579 and Freightliner Cascadias, and also new Hyundai trailers.

 

Formerly Haney. They were bought out by Wilson.

 

This is dry van. Still too low? What about the per diem? Again, I was an hourly local driver for 25 years, now I’m a rookie again...

 

Yep, there's still a few left, but they're on the way out the door soon, probably by the end of the year.
