I used to drive for them, and would recommend them to anyone.
I started out with a Pete 379 (few dents & dings on the outside, but mechanically great), changed to a Pete 387 (low miles, and very nice), and ran dry vans in the Western 11 for them. In that time I also pulled two reefer loads. The trucks were governed at 60 mph (up to +3mph with good mpg), and the two day dm's I had were a pleasure to work with. You don't need a hazmat endorsement for the Western 11, but will for the 48 fleet (reefers).
The freight was slow at the time with some weeks being right around 1,900 miles a week, and then others would be over 3,000. The pay, and average miles is comparable with other companies. I never had any problems with getting paid for what I did. The few minor scale receipts that weren't included were paid in my next paycheck when I provided the payroll department the receipt. I had a personal matter that when discussed with the supervisor was resolved without issue, and did not result in less miles as a result. When I submitted my two weeks notice my miles did not drop off, and they did not "forget" when my last day was. The same can be said for home time, as I never once had to remind them, and always got home on time. They did what they said they'd do, and I delivered the freight safely, legally, and on time as I said I would. That's about all I can ask for, and was very happy with May Trucking.
Sure there were annoyances. Driving 60mph in a 65-70mph state for one, but it's their truck and if they want it driven 20 mph I would have (while looking for another job
. The idle policy and lack of apu's while running CA (I understand why they want idle time reduced, and I benefited from the program, but can see why many drivers didn't like it). The cruise control would not work if the lights were on which got really annoying when in light traffic areas where I could use it but wanted the added visibility of running with the lights on. Most of their customers are great, but a certain distributor in Tracy, CA could make even Gandhi go postal. Night dm's won't plan you on a load so if you get empty in the middle of the night you might as well go to sleep. Oh, and getting planned empty on a Friday afternoon in Salt Lake City.
I enjoyed my time at May and would gladly go back to work for them.
