Anyone ever work for Carlile Transport? They mainly operate in Alaska but they have terminals in Houston, Tacoma and I believe Edmonton. Just looking for insight into their company and people's experiences with them. I know they typically require 3-5 years experience but I'm doing my research =) Thanks!

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.

Dm:

Dispatcher, Fleet Manager, Driver Manager

The primary person a driver communicates with at his/her company. A dispatcher can play many roles, depending on the company's structure. Dispatchers may assign freight, file requests for home time, relay messages between the driver and management, inform customer service of any delays, change appointment times, and report information to the load planners.

You can always watch ice road truckers. J/k.

On a serious note, I don’t think anybody that is active on the forum has driven or drives for them. I wish I could help. Sorry

I read this post and was immediately confused when I saw you say it was out of Alaska. I was thinking about Carlisle carrier Corp which is based out of Pennsylvania. The previous posting that spoke of not likely anyone on here having history with the company in Alaska May be accurate. Wish Icould help. I did some research on the PA company but not the Alaska one

Thanks Patrick lol - I've seen most of the episodes =D

Thanks for the replies, guys. I figured it was a long-shot but I thought that since they have a couple of terminals in the lower 48, I'd ask. Have a great day!
