    TruckersReport Review

    If you want to be paid 26% of a load and also never receive a pay raise and when you ask about a pay raise, you are told when the load pays more that your pay raise and bring home 500-700 a week then this is the company for you. They haul #### drywall loads and run load board bottom barrel loads. Drivers are treated like trash by upper management. The only thing good about this place is the dispatcher in west branch she is amazing.

    I drove their crap equipment for some time. After I left I had issues finding employment. I later found out they filed a false report of leaving the scene of an accident on my Hireright /DAC report which I am currently disputing. Four Star - reviews go both ways and I am not done!

    I picked up a trailer that had a missing mud flap 6 miles from 4 stars.I checked in. Told them about the mud flap. They put a new mud flap on in less than 10 minutes. I know that's not too hard of a job.But it was cold and raining out.And I was running out of drive time and on duty time. Thank you 4 stars.I made it back to work on time.You all awesome great team work

    The company needs to be investigated for payroll fraud. No detention pay. No breakdown pay. Forced dispatch. Will deadhead you 100 to 250 miles for a load. Bottom of the barrel pay at 26%. Take home pay ranges from 500 to 900 dollars a week. No fridges or microwave in most trucks. Forget ever getting a safety bonus.
