    I've heard a lot bad things about WS Van, but what about their dry bulk? I'm a tanker driver looking to get closer to home. Any info on them would be awesome.
    Thanks.

    I usually see one of their trucks on I81 around Harrisburg. Trailers look rough,and the trucks are worse. I have no clue who their customers are, I've never seen them in the cement mills (or anywhere else other than I81 for that matter).

    Personally, I'd work for C.R. England before these guys

    Sanders is a partner in KW Plastics, which has plants in Alabama and California that buys scrap polypropelyne and recycles it into pipe, and also makes plastic paint cans. Bulk tankers you see in PA are usually carrying pellets to Behr Paints in Fogelsville, where Sanders molds the cans as KW Plastics, and sells them to Behr. Pretty sweet, huh? Sanders buys the scrap paint cans, reprocesses it into pellets, hauls this to it's plants in its own trucks, makes new cans and sells them back to it's customer again.

    Yeeah no. Never. Not in a million years.

    Not bad! sounds like they are dedicated then? That's what love about Tanker. I'd load in St Gabe and take it to point B, then right back to St Gabe. None of this chasing loads all over the freaking nation. That's why i'll never do anything other than Tanker. I'm going to call a recruiter at WS and get lied to some. Was hoping maybe somebody here worked or works for them could chime in a bit. Thanks for the info DonnieBoy.
