Profile For Straitnut

Hi all! Definitely appreciate you trying to help me. Here is the link to their website if that helps any: https://activetransport.com/ They don’t own any trucks because they only deliver the new trucks from the Kenworth and Peterbilt factories. I’m new to the industry and trying to research each company before I apply. I like to read reviews because it typically tells a lot about a company. Although, I understand there are always going to be some disgruntled folks who can never be happy and they’ll write a poor review. So I know not to take them all to heart. Since I couldn’t really find a lot of info online for them I figured maybe I’d try this forum. And also, maybe you all have some other company suggestions for me as well. There’s so much to take in for these companies and to be honest it seems to all be running together now! Lol But to just get an idea of each company, their values, and what to expect from their onboarding process I find to be helpful for myself. Just a side note; I’ve noticed on here that if anyone questions the drug testing method you are automatically labeled as a drug user. This is a bit disappointing because not all of us are drug users. Some of us are just inquiring minds who like to be educated on the process. Also, coming from a medical background I understand the pros and cons to both types of testing. And to add, I worked with a lot of addicts who deserved a second, third or even fourth chance and it was all they needed to get to the healthy point where they wanted to stay clean. Truck driving is a dangerous job, and rewarding at the same time, so it may be the one thing to hold that person accountable and make them hold their head up high and be proud of accomplishing something they never imagined possible before. So I just ask that you consider your response before answering someone’s questions about the topic. They don’t need to be beat down again before they get out of the gate. Thank you to all in advance for your help with my questions!! ~ Be Kind to each other ~ ~ Stay safe out there ~ ~ God Bless ~

Does anyone know anything about Active USA Transport? I’m not really finding a lot of comments online about the company and I wonder how happy their drivers are and how well they treat their employees. I’m also curious about the hiring process. What kind of drug screen do they do - urine or hair, or both? No, I’m not concerned with failing a test just want to know what to expect. Do they require you to take another physical aside from your DOT physical? How well do they train their new drivers? Any info on this company would be appreciated.
