If your talking about the yellow trucks and trailers...I have a friend who is a local driver for them in Fontana. He does LTL and unloads to the rear deck.

They finally got all new Sterlings here and got rid of the Internationals the were driving. Much better trux according to my friend.

I guess it is ok if you like working for a living. Im not much into pallet jacks anymore.....

Not for long. Soon Moye's empire will be Swift(whick has agreed to be bought by Moyes), Central Freight and Central Reefer. Scary thought. I wonder if he will consolidate the individual companies into one?

I hear that Jerry has already moved back into his old office and has assumed command.

I also see that Central Refrigerated now has a Central Flatbed Service. Yep, saw a bunch of their new red Volvos and flatbeds going North on the I 15 in Utah. Called a buddy who still works there and he verified it.
