X West Carriers

[hankster]

I've been noticing a lot of X West Carrier straight trucks going up and down the big street in the Kitchener area. Kinda nice looking, black, tandem, Stirlings with bunks. Anybody know anything about them?

Smaller company based out of New Dundee. X-west does a lot of brokering and has a division called Boyder that does nothing but act as a forwarder. The units you see are mainly used for freight in ON, OH, IN, MI which, is pretty much as far into the US as you can go as a Canadian and still expect a decent chance of return freight (mainly automotive related). Trucks are clean and well maintained so they do care about their image. Don't think they are taking anybody on right now but a phone call will likely tell you what you need to know.
