I'm driving for Roehl, been a little more than a month. I wasn't quite driven to tears as was said before, but it was more along the lines panicking over the thought "this thing is big and heavy and could flatten a sedan if I mess up".
The company had me out on my own after little more than a week, so the first few days were incredibly nerve-wracking. It's not so bad now, though there have been slips here and there, and I think I made the right choice with Roehl. The trucks are newer models, each with a TruckPC, and dependant on what you chose, the time off is great. Only once did I meet someone who wasnt happy with Roehl, and his only problem was the governed trucks not being able to meet his expected mileage.
How long have you been with Roehl so far? Have you had any issues with getting miles or had long wait times for load/unload at the shippers or receivers? How much do they pay for empty?
Hope I'm not bombarding you. I've been looking into Roehl and there was another guy who posted his time on here when he first started about year and half ago. How are you enjoying it so far?
The customer who is shipping the freight. This is where the driver will pick up a load and then deliver it to the receiver or consignee.
