Default Linehaul for NEMF (New England Motor Freight)

Was wondering if anyone is currently driving linehaul for NEMF or has in the past?
Info is appreciated.

Not sure...Havent really had a desire to get caught up in the whole CFM & Rev. Vass drama...
I tend to steer away from it actually.
Not to get off topic or anything.

i run with quite a few of their guys here in ohio, the seem pretty happy on the radio anyways. if that is who CFM works for i feel bad for the company as a whole. not sure on pay, i tend to shy away from nosing into people business where that is concerned. but they are all home everyday and turn some damn good miles...maybe too many to enjoy that time at home, dunno.

You could do worse than NEMF. Linehaul with them is a decent gig. All LTL's are going to vary a little by terminal and manpower. Bottom line is when you're new the difference between a good LTL job and a bad one is how much work you are getting. NEMF is union but not the teamsters. Pay and bennies are middle of the road. I have a friend there and he likes it but he knows pay and bennies could be better...but he likes his seniority. If you can get it I'd do it.

:lol: Nothing at all (that I know of), it's just that it seems every post your involved in, starts someone bickering with you and so on. I stay away from that..Not a popcorn kinda guy.

I went for an interview yesterday, talk with the terminal manager for about an hour, he said benefits are 100% for you and your family. Nothing cost you a dime. He says pay averages around $1000-$1300/week. Downside is, it sounds like your only home about 8-12 hours, a few times a week.

Just was wondering if anyone had any first hand experience with them.
I saw a thread on another message board, but all it was, was a bunch of whining about the union. blah.
