Anyone have any info on CEVA,I'v seen there trucks but I don't know
anyone thats worked for them? Whats there op like.ect????
They are a local p&d company with stations located throughout the US. Mondays and Fridays are their busiest days. Pretty much load up your truck in the morning and then go out and make deliveries and do pickups on the way back to terminal. Nice way to sleep in your own bed every night if that is what you are looking for. They occasionally have off freight but that is not the norm and you will most likely have to deadhead back home.
How do they pay? Average drop and pick up per day?
When I worked with Shem about 15 yrs ago they were called Eagle Freight. If you did an otr run you got pd per mile. When you did local you would get % of the the whole ticket (ex. $10 for delivery plus any other incidentals, inside del., lift gate, waiting time. Add these all together and times your % rate. They also had a load that was called "special", that load pd like min. $35 plus incidentals times your rate. Run loads in the evening and get pd premium rate. Also many loads were run from the airport so you had to be TSA certified. Load up in morning after daily truck came in and you could expect to do anywhere from 10-20+ deliveries plus pickup per day.
Thanks! Great info
Home every night...hmmm, very tempting, lol.
Not sure if it profitable for O/O, but with all those running around, one can certainly shades a few pounds

Ready for Ceva to move into the Mile High city. I saw one of there vans the other day in CO, maybe they are anonymously quietly here already.
I believe Ceva has an office in every major city in the US if I'm not mistaken.
They closed the Cleveland office a few years ago
As long as they can swallow diligent and american expedite I'll be happy.
The big guys like Ceva need to come in and clean house and eat up these little companies. The little guys are preaching a false sense of reality. MCD workers are making more $ in this city! People say a lot of bad things about Panther and FedX but at the end of the day, they cut checks on time and pay every empty move miles and deadhead miles so they are living in a real sense of reality as opposed to some smaller carrier that can barely get their drivers moving. If it means staying busier I'm ready for the corporate world to take over in this Sprinter driving industry!! Don't hold your breath.

The last time he mentioned it [on facebook, not here], he was driving for Brinks, or Wells Fargo, one of those armored courier gigs.
Geo seems happy with Ceva, and I've done some of their loads, too, with no reason to complain.
