Its appears Watkins-Shepard has a terminal in North Ga..
And they also have some out west. This tells me a driver will get to go out west with them. Anyone here have any real experience with Watkins. Whats a day or a week like in the life of a Watkins driver ? Thanks

I live about a 100 miles south of their Dalton terminal. I did a search on Watkins-Shepard and read some of the older posts about them, but I'd be curious to hear a little more, too. No company is perfect, but as far as I can tell, they're pretty decent.

From what I understand, they are a pretty decent company. I think not too long ago there was a flurry of posts about them..... Do a search with the company name and see what pops up.

I liked the driving and all the rest of it, just could not fit with the Trainer, from everything I have heard, Watkins is a much better fit for me, am looking forward to this, 10 days then on my own without living in a box with someone else
