That is what gets anyone respected no matter what the job, your age, or your gender. I'd be a liar if I were to say I never ask for help. A few months ago, I was working with a rookie driver that had a bad habit of bragging. For some strange reason he couldn't figure out how to slide his...

I posted a list for the O.P. To consider a few days ago but it appears to have been removed. Bottom line is if you can't find, hire, and keep qualified drivers the problem is loo kin back at you in the mirror. Bob Wolf

First question is how much if any experianced in trucking do you have? Pay and volume are often based on this. I haven't worked for them personally but I did talk with them a couple years ago and I think they are a leasing company. This is not a bad thing but, keep in mind, if they are a...

I am the type that can respect any woman that can do every part the job, like sliding tandems, loading and unloading, etc., without having to ask a guy to do it for her. And even if she is the type that can't pull her own weight and expect a guy to do her job, there is no excuse to be a...

I need to make a small correction. Crown pallet jacks have Polly urethane wheels. Durable and quiet. Bob Wolf.

Wider is better, they're more stable. Nylon wheels are usually tougher and last longer than ploy carbonate but can be A little noisy on concrete but not a deal killer. You won't notice the difference unless you run it across diamond plate all day long but nylon will last longer. Rapid lift is...
