I worked for them for almost 1 yr. the Tuscon truck yard is the home office. flag is another yard, also have Laveen, st.johns, and Kingman. pay is not very competitive.( all per loaded miles) alot of dead head miles, and sitting at plants waiting to load, and as anyone familiar with pnuematic bulk transfer knows, unloading is time consuming.most tractors are older,degraded units,and trailers are hazardous at best. i was at the laveen terminal,and went thru 4 terminal managers in less then 1 year.overall, not a stable, safe, competitively paying experience for me personally.

Equipment is old and very abused, the shop staff is short handed and unable to keep up with maintenance. Trucks are fixed as they break down. as far as I could tell there is no preventive maintenance being done. No assigned vehicles slip seating.
Work schedules are non existent if you have hours you will work period. In the last 6 weeks I have worked every imaginable schedule you can think of. No more than 10 hours off between shifts and barely 34 hours at the end of your 70. Burn out came fast. When I added up all the hours I worked compared to the money, I was averaging about $8.00 an hour for a 70 hour work week.
I worked in the pneumatic section of the company delivering Cement, Flyash and Lime. They have other areas HazMat, Copper Concentrates and Acid drivers, but I am not familiar with them all so my experience could be unique to my terminal here in Laveen AZ.

Update! Been running for about two months, they seem to need drivers constantly. Rapid burn out, running 70/8 in what is basically a short haul operation. one day off per week. if you have hours available you run. when you don't .. after 10 off you run. trucks slip seated, repaired as they break down. running different equipment nearly every time out. Constantly tired, often confusing and inaccurate dispatch. To their credit however they DO seem to at least "try" to work with their drivers. Pay is good (unless you consider the amount of hours you put in to get it).
Any type of quality of life is not possible as your only time off are your 10's and your 34 during which you either need to sleep, or prepare to go out again. .. And the saga continues .............

That's the same experiance I had with them. Plenty of work, great staff, truly seem to be trying. Just the pay did not out weight the loss of time spent with family as well as after 70 hrs. you made less than minimum wage. But they did fill a need for me when I needed it and I would go back if I had to. Good luck.
