Central Oregon Truck Company
Topic 8155 | Page 1
Chase, Central Oregon is a good solid flatbed operation. You should be able to do real well there. Just keep a great attitude and be serious about taking care of your freight and your customers.
I think i have the attitude covered, i did some flat bedding in the army, but with ammunition and heavy equipment mostly. i explained to the recruiter, i never lost anything off my truck in the military, and it may not count , but on the weekends i help my father in law tarp and strap his loads down just to give him a break, i like the active lifestyle flatbedding presents to me and it gives me a chance to get out and get some experience. i had tried getting on with heavy haul or a specialized carrier but not having DOT experience really hurt me , thank all you guys for what you do on this forum and out on the road, and like the transportation corps says, WE are the Spearhead of Logistics

Leave out Sunday morn for Redmond Oregon for Monday 6am start for orientation, I got the nervous jitters bad, dunno why, I just want to do good and be an asset ,safely and efficiently
