Absolutely love driving here. Everything they told me from the time I applied until I climbed in the seat they followed through on. The office staff and the owner are all some of the nicest people I've had the fortune to meet and work with. Amy issues or concerns are addressed immediately. The equipment is top notch. Hope to be here for a long time to come.

It's a nice company with polite staff and just people around. I had some problems, like any other drivers, and we always would find solutions. I've got my deposit back and would always get answer to my questions about settlement, days off, etc

Good equipment. Good pay. The dispatch works bankers hours, and does not cover trucks before they get to their destinations. Particularly on Monday. They leave work on Friday with no plan for their Monday trucks. They crunch for loads all day Monday when they could've been covering trucks Friday and Saturday. Very unprofessional in my opinion.
