Watkins ?
 
Its appears Watkins-Shepard has a terminal in North Ga..

And they also have some out west.

This tells me a driver will get to go out west with them.

Anyone here have any real experience with Watkins.

Whats a day or a week like in the life of a Watkins driver ?

Thanks

I live about a 100 miles south of their Dalton terminal. I did a search on Watkins-Shepard and read some of the older posts about them, but I'd be curious to hear a little more, too. No company is perfect, but as far as I can tell, they're pretty decent.

From what I understand, they are a pretty decent company. I think not too long ago there was a flurry of posts about them..... Do a search with the company name and see what pops up.

I will start with Watkins Shepard on the 10th, had started with another Company with a "Driver Trainer", I did the driving and he did not do the training, he was the worst of everything I had heard about Trucking.

I liked the driving and all the rest of it, just could not fit with the Trainer, from everything I have heard, Watkins is a much better fit for me, am looking forward to this, 10 days then on my own without living in a box with someone else
