Who will hire drivers with very little experience? ??
Just recently obtained my class A, have had my class B since 96. Anyone know of a company that would hire a new guy?

Pays seems to be 100$ a day. Is that what to expect starting out? Doesn't seem like a lot of money to be gone 11- 14 days. Leasing the trucks are bad? Fill me in.

spend the money get your own authority and find reputible brokers to get your loads from. I use Internet Truck Stops point system and almost always get paid for my loads.It is a little more headache but it is worth it in the long run you choose what you want to do and what you want to pull if it doesnt pay good dont take it.

Are you looking for OTR, Regional, Local? Want to pull a van, flat, reefer, tanker? Whether your new driver or experienced, stay away from leasing. Basically, your paying the company to rent equipment they already own outright. If your going to pay for equipment your better off buying your own instead of "leasing" it from a company. You then have more options at your disposal than leasing. In a lease they will tell you that your paying for the truck and at the end it will be yours, complete lie. You may get a truck but it won't be the truck you've been driving and supposedly paying on. |
I spoke with Werner, they seemed willing to hire. Anyone know about Werner new hires? I live in Va not sure how close they are.

Buddy I grew up with went with them right out of school, he liked'em. He moved on to what he thought was greener pastures only to realize that Werner wasn't so bad at all. He just went with EPES out of Greensboro, NC and seems to like them thus far as much as he liked Werner.
Werner has a terminal up in Allentown, PA and another in Atlanta, GA, those are the closest 2 to VA. I see them running up and down both 95 and 81 all the time. |

Werner does have the Dollar General account out of South Boston (which is what I do), and the Family Dollar account in Front Royal. Pay is good on both accounts ($800 or more weekly), and hometime is weekly there. DG just took on a few new guys, but may be taking more in a few months, since the delivery area may be changing. There's also the Perdue [reefer] account on the eastern shore and at Strasburg. I don't know how good the pay is, but it's not what you'd make at DG/FD, and the hometime is every two weeks. If you want to know anything else about them, ask me. I'll do what I can do answer. |
