RE Bolt Express
Well, here is our scoop
Got on Greyhound bus from Tupelo, MS to Toldeo, OH
got there and went into class for a day and a half
got quail com installed had to get truck 2 new batteries $236.00was in luck and had 3/4 fuel in 2000 T300 KW straight truck
then got load to N/C got there within 7 minutes of unload time
then here we sit for going on 24 hrs waiting for a load
(now dont get me wrong) however we have a special need
we need to go home due to the greyhound bus didnt let us put into it our covers and food and other things soooooooo go with bolt express we are still here but not leaving the company because there is money in this business and expedite is the way to go .....

There are a number of discussions of them. You should read back at least a year in the general, newbies and recruiter forums. You'll find good discussion of Bolt as well as numerous other things important in this business. Good luck.

I am an owner who recently just put my other truck back on with Bolt. I can't tell you what life is like now, but I CAN tell you they're a growing thriving company with their own customer database. I drove for them in early 2005, and they ran my tail off. I was OK with that part, but, as a new expediter, I didn't understand the "sitting" part. Quit prematurely because of impatience (mine) . I CAN tell you I visited their facility just last week, and they've definitely grown from when I was there....and expanding more to accomodate more driver facilities. You want honest, sincere, no-nonsense people...I would suggest calling Ann or Mark (the guy in the video) and ask a multitude of questions. I can give you this....in 2005, the office was a simple "suite" with a handful of people running the whole show. Barely room to park then. Only 4 dispatchers then too. Happy to say, that handful of people made that company explode, and still growing. And, that same handful of people are still there! Call em'? Only thing you can lose is airtime!
