Andrus Transportation Services

[Sentinel]

Have not been able to find any current information on Andrus Transportation Services ( www.andrustrans.com ) based out of St. George, Utah. The WEB site is a bit sparse and FMCS stats are relatively good.

Can anyone provide info on current status such as driver treatment, training, working conditions, etc., etc.?

Used to work for them in 2003, they have relatively old to new equipment, They pay 30cpm to start that is with per diem. Don't really hold them in high regard to a trucking company. You basically run in UT, NV, CA, and Co. Most of the runs are from Salt Lake City, UT to Southern California.

I drive for Andrus, they have their good and bad points like any other company. They will give you a lot of miles but their equipment is mainly
old and need of repairs. Lots of freedom, not a lot of rules other than be ready to chain up and keep going when it snows. Overall rating on a 1 to 10, probably a 6, email me if you want more details.

Thanks guys! I appreciate the info. With all the searching I did I found very little on them except they apparently are an arm of FFE.

Have met the owners - very much a family operation- where are you making the FFE connection?

Small "family" type companies are the way to go....It's like the Navy, small ships you know everyone..You can get lost on a carrier... :shock:

Oops! My bad!! Have been researching so many companies I mixed this one up with another I was looking at. FFE is comprised of FFE ( www.ffex.net ), Lisa Motor Lines ( www.lisamtc.com ) and American Eagle Lines ( www.aeal.com ).

Sentinel, How are things?

[Karnajj]

Is there more than one Andrus? The trucks I keep seeing are absolutely beautiful. Have yet to see a dirty one.

[beemermcr]

Two Andrus:

Andrus Transportation Services - St. George, UT - usually white tractors (some are older and dark colors), with a red and blue paint scheme

Doug Andrus - Idaha (sorry, dont remember the town) - usually red tractors, white trailers, with red lettering.

Doug Andrus generally has the better reputation, IMHO.

[thebobguy]

That is correct! At least TWO Andrus...think they are even distant relations.
