    C6D79B5B-7B56-4BAA-835B-9ACAC693CA2B.jpeg Has anyone heard of or had any run ins with TAP Transport out of Battle Creek, MI? I’ve tried looking up reviews about them but they’re a smaller company and I can’t find anything. I’m supposed to hear back from them any day now but I’m wanting some other input along with what they have to say. Any help is appreciated, thanks!

    They hired me on, sent me to orientation, then ghosted me when I kept asking about truck assignment, etc. Never even got a call back. I'd run far, run fast.

    Where did they send you to orientation? Did you actually meet with anyone from the company? My cdl instructor said he runs into an employee somewhat regularly and says he really likes the job, pay etc…

    It was a steel company down by Detroit, it's been quite a few years so I don't remember. I've been to the TAP terminal in Battle Creek.

    In your opinion do you think it’s a legit business with only a handful of drivers or just a few people hauling freight and trying to sound bigger than they are? Also they told me that they don’t own the trucks and that they are leasing them through a company called Alco. Have you ever heard of that company? I tried looking them up as a leasing company and the only thing I found was a medical store

    Alco was the steel company. You seem to be set on working for them regardless.

    No I’m not haha. I wanted to work for them but finding nothing about the company. Them not calling me back. Ignoring my calls. Sent up a lot of red flags. I’m set up for orientation with another flatbed company for the 13th. Just wanted to see if anyone knew anything about them because I’d like to drive 389s and flatbeds/conestogas
