Wil-Trans:

Darrel Wilson bought his first tractor in 1980 at age 20, but, being too young to meet OTR age requirements, he leased the truck out and hired a driver.

Through growth and acquisition, Wil-Trans now employs over 200 drivers, and has a long-standing partnership with Prime, Inc. to haul their refrigerated freight. The family of businesses also includes Jim Palmer Trucking and O & S Trucking.

I can't tell you much about Wil-Trans other than the fact they only pull Prime trailers, use Prime's terminals & facilities.

Don't know anything about their pay structure.

Hopefully someone will be able to help with other information.

Terminal:

A facility where trucking companies operate out of, or their "home base" if you will. A lot of major companies have multiple terminals around the country which usually consist of the main office building, a drop lot for trailers, and sometimes a repair shop and wash facilities.

Wil-Trans owns Jim Palmer and pulls Prime trailers as they sub contract for Prime. Yeah, it's nothing you probably don't already know. The only thing I can add is that Allie Knight drives for Jim Palmer. Right now she is hosting a recruiter from Wil-Trans, Valerie, so her vlog entries are hilarious.
