No hazmat with Bolt. I believe whitewolf53 drives a D-unit for them.

There have been a number of threads on Bolt. Click search in the main forum window and do a search for bolt. That should give you a lot of info on them and help you figure out more specifics to ask about. Also, get to the expo this weekend if you can and talk to them there.

Bolt Express does not run any hazmat. Their "core" area is OH, MI, IN, IL, PA, KY, TN, WI, WV, W-NY, W-PA. They do run 48states & ON/PQ. TX, GA, KS, MO, MN & AL are frequent "out of core" places. It's a small company with a small, but very professional operations team. In terms of keeping busy, it largely boils down to availability & acceptance. When i was dispatching there, I could book cargo vans 3000+mi weeks, but the overall pay-out (incl. FSC) was $0.65-75 a mile. They can keep you moving, but you can not expect to keep top dollar all the time. It's a small company and they have to under-bid Panther, ASAP, Express1, TriState & such. I don't know how the meger will affect them, but they booked a lot of loads from Conway's brokerage. They also subscribe to Panther's brokerage.

Call Recuiting. I saw an annoucement about new pay packages that may be beneficial. 800-545-4789

creekindian33,
What do you mean when you said "4 to 6 per week on team driving"? Is this miles or pay? And also, who and when did you receive this information? Just curious.
Thanks!!
