Transport America Transportation
 

T.rying to find out about these people have done a search on here ,nothing.Iguess I'm doing it wrong. Looking at the southeastern division .Thanks

It will come down to your driver trainee
 

rather you mesh with that person or not, mine was a religious selfish prick who only thought of himself!

What are you talking about? Idon't need a trainer,just want to know about co.

Well, the company is pretty fair, but if your a newbie, it is like any other comapny, it is how you get along with your driver trainee

I would also like to find out some things about this Co. from some ppl with first hand experience, as I have been approved by them and plan to go to orientation on 2/4/08.
Any info will be greatly appreciated.

Put the question out there and I shall reply


90% great
5% reg trucking comp crap
3% Things I feel should be differ
2% TA crap u have to deal with


Been here a yr my first job so also trained here.

wepwawet,
Thanks for the reply. I was beginning to wonder if anybody would.
I figured TA must be a pretty good Co. or that nobody on here ever worked for them because if they had and didn't like them then they would be quick to bash them.
Another question: do they have paper or electronic logs?

I looking for feedback on Transport America too,
I saw an add quote for .44 cent per mile for solo drivers? Need to call them I guess.


Other Important questions:

haz-mat required?
inverters allowed in trucks?
cabinet doors or nets?
forced dispatch or load select?
assigned driver manager/dispatcher or zone dispatch?
48states irregular route or specific freight lanes?
can they get me home?

Seems like I get a letter from them every week. Right up there with MasterCard and Visa.

ok, so if you get a letter from them every week--please enlighten me--

I just went to their web site...found 'somewhat' of an answer for a couple of those questions which elude me.

10+years = .44**

**= for exceptional work history

the ** needs more clear cut defining.

there's a place on the downloadable application where you enter 'Yes' or 'No' under haz-mat endorcement. So, Maybe required...maybe ..not?

looks like east of I-35 freight lanes--and mostly north of mason-dixie line

all the other questions still are open begging for answers.
