Some HHG drivers are lazy. I have my days too when I'm run down, but I load my truck 99% of the time. Its not uncommon for helpers to complain- I mean, look where they're at on the food chain :shock: They don't have paperwork, have to be on the phone all the time, or even drive the truck (1/2 of the helpers don't have licenses anyway).

United/Mayflower's new specs are all white tractors. Most hhg companies have a grace period (around 1 year) to get is painted. Heck, why do you think Teal95KW's s/n is just that, when he ran for United? :lol:

And I DO NOT have a ride along helper. That gets old FAST. Plus, i run continental, so they'd be sitting there for 3 days (no pay) on each end. Some guys do it, but not me- the sleeper is only so big, and 1 smelly mover is better than 2 at the end of a hard day.

I've been looking alot and I do notice some trucks in the truck stops and on the road that are pulling HHG trailer and are not white I think one of the companies was Berkins. As far as companies that train I'm in the northeast and one close to me U can check out is www.Georgemoving.com any info u get please share it

I was offered a job driving for George about 2 months ago. I laughed when they told me what they pay. We have a driver that worked ther for 10 years before he come to the company that I work for. makes more here and he has only been here 6 months and has a class B.
