Perdue Transportation Salisbury Md

Hello all. I have a interview coming up with this company and would like to get a little more insight on your miles, areas ran, equipment and home time please. Throughout the application process they seem to genuinely care about their drivers. Upon searching the internet there is not much about them out there. I heard that they have opened up a new Dc in Leesport Pa. Is that effecting the miles? Leesport is pretty close to NYC, and most other points in the North East. Any insight would be much appreciated.

 

Thanks fellas! I figured they would be rather picky on who they hire. It just seems that over the past couple years they have been hiring a awful lot. Not sure if that's from some of the veteran guys retiring or from some changes they have been going through.

 

315 you are right about the job market down this way. Always have been rather low paying unless you find the right niche. Ive always been told that private fleets are the way to go anymore.

 

I appreciate the insight. From what I hear Perdue is a good outfit to work for. When I drove for Reed I used to see them up in NYC a lot. Just want to make sure they are not starting to go by the wayside like other good companies. 5 to 6 years back they used to very rarely advertise for their OTR division. Now they advertise atleast once a month it seems like. Not sure if that should be a red flag or not.

 

Yeah that's a good point. They have dropped their experience level a few times over the years and I imagine the shortage of drivers has a lot to do with it. My interview is Wednesday and could be a game changer for me and the family.
