    Hi everyone. I was wondering if anyone had info in LME. I tried searching the forum but could only find older threads about their dealings in Minnesota.

    I'm set to test out of Vincennes University next week here in Indy and the terminal manager has contacted me and offered me a job. He said they've only been in Indy for about a year. I've worked the dock for Holland and YRC so I'm fairly accustomed to LTL work, just didn't know how LME stacks up as a company. Thanks.

    I worked for them many years ago ...back then it was low pay and chaos ...junk equipment too but that may have changed under the new owners.
    We always said LME stood for late most every time lol

    I like those big outfits.

    Now it stands for Logistics Made Easy. They closed the home terminal at Roseville MN, restarted non-union. That was the only Union location.

    Call West Side Transport. Cedar Rapids, IA. If you want local, they have a terminal in Indy, just north of the Flying J/Pilot area. Do you want OTR? You would get $900 per w/o min to start. $70.00 per day training pay.

    Yeah I read about the union busting stuff on here. I've also got apps in with old dominion, altom, Indianapolis fruit, NFI and a couple others. I've kinda been going crazy putting in apps. Lme is the only one to get back with me

    Yeah it’s FLE now. 24 an hour to bump docks.

    I’ve been to a bunch of their terminals. They buy a lot from us.

    I just seen this- Did you work Linehaul foir them? They used to come over to Acme motor freight on Iron Street here in Chicago to Pick up trailers to Omaha-Lakeville-Kansas City etc- All LTL shipments loaded in the trailers. Then I think GRANE took over the Chicago Trans Hub.
