Who IS busy right now?

I’m at National Road/Cowan. It’s been real slow for us. Causing high turnover.

Morristown Trucking (MDS) Drivers Experience

Hey guys and gals. Anyone have any experience with MDS out of Morristown TN. Looking to get some feedback before submitting an application. Had a great conversation with the recruiting manager. But I need drivers perspective.

Marten or Knight- Which to Choose

Thanks Harvey. Email sent. I’m coming from flatbed, so I know it’s a different animal in dry van or reefer.

Our son Michael has driven for Marten for just over 11 months and still says he "loves it."

His former team driver partner at CR England started with Marten two weeks ago after hearing Michael talk so favorably about Marten.

Michael is on a dedicated fleet with 12 days on and 2 days off but usually gets home early on his 12th day and usually leaves late morning on his 1st day. He has had 3 increases in pay since he started. If you'd like to chat with him, contact me via email that's in my profile.

Marten or Knight- Which to Choose

Hello fellow drivers!

I’ve decided it’s time for a change. I’ve narrowed it down to Knight Transportation and Marten. Both deals are comparable in regards to the financial side and both offer home weekly as I’ll be based out of Charlotte NC. I’m looking for feedback from any who are currently or have worked for them whether good or bad so I can make a better informed decision. Thanks in advance

Going from flatbed to dry van

Good deal. Thank you for the info. A friend of mine just started with them. So far he loves it. Typically able to leave on Monday since he lives in Charlotte. And he knows his loads a day ahead of time and even gets home during the week sometimes.

Knight has regional in dry van. 6 out, 2 in and 8 out 2 in. They have a pretty big sign on bonus for experienced drivers too and some other perks. Probably the biggest challenge can be finding empties, but I never have too much trouble with it. My DM always hooks me up or let's me bobtail in if worse comes to worse.

Maybach Trucking

Thanks bro. They only have two terminals and seems way to good to be true.

The quick Google look I just performed showed them as a "1099" company based out of the greater Chicago area.

I would pass.

Anyone know anything about this company? They reached out to me and I can’t find any info to make a conscious decision before calling?
