Load 1
Does anyone have any info on Load 1? I've done searches on here but haven't really come up with much. Any info would be greatly appreciated. BTW, I'm licensed to drive a CDL straight truck.

Re: Load 1
As a driver with them I would strongly encourage anyone that wants to be treated fairly, kept busy and get paid on time to contact them.
They have a solid customer base, a member of the Expedite Alliance, and if you are in the Detroit area you will benefit from their cross dock at the corporate office.
My pay/settlements have always been on time via direct depost and just as important the miles I get have been steady and the rate is in line with current market conditions.
If you want to work, keep yourself available, except the loads they offer you - I will say that you too will be happy with Load-1.
The dispatchers at Load-1 are the most experienced and best you will get in the business.
Contact either Vince, Dodi or Angie at Load-1 by calling (734) 947-9440.

Re: Load 1
But FT how are the rates?
Would a van/sprinter be a good thing to have with Load 1?Greg

Re: Load 1
I would suggest you talk directly to the people I listed and they could tell you more about the rates and about how they handle vans and sprinters since I am in a straight truck.

Re: Load 1
The fact that the Load 1's CEO likes to interact on this site with owner operators speaks volumes.

Re: Load 1
Sorry I was slow to respond to this thread, I was out of town on business and hard to do EO on a blackberry, lol. Thank you to everyone for their compliments about the company and myself. It is humbling and nice to see positive things said on EO. It is not like alot of sites that trash talk everything. It is a group of professional and intelligent individuals that debate and discuss topics in a positive manner.
Janet, I will respond to your pm next.
Thanks again!
