I was just wondering if anybody has any info on Saia? Good… not so good? I never seem to hear much about them… maybe that’s a positive thing, but hearing from someone that’s in the know would be appreciated.
Anybody Work For Saia?

You generally don’t hear a lot on any of the major big players of the LTL side of the trucking industry. I generally refrain from mentioning competing forums, but checkout Truckingboards.com. There is pretty robust lineup on the LTL companies over there.

Biggest complaint I hear from a friend that drives for SAIA is the driver facing camera. Trucks run 68MPH but if you use the fuel pedal it is 65MPH. Difficult to pass a truck running 65MPH when you need to jump into the left lane when 3.5 seconds behind that truck and get it done in a reasonable amount of time. Speeding down a big hill will get you a company letter for speeding. They have a point system that gets many drivers.

However I know 7 drivers at the place. And all but 1 are looking for a better place to drive for. Estes, ODFL, &FXF tend to be the best non union LTL companies. Depending on the location. But just like saia, FxF has driver facing cams.Bud A., Iamoverit, Lotsa Bellyfat and 1 other person Thank this. -
