CDL
License is not required for cargo vans, Sprinter cargo vans,
cube vans, all which are under 10,001 # GVW. A simple standard
Operators License is sufficient.
If your
unit is 10,001 pounds up to 26,001 pounds, you will need a
Chauffeurs license and a D.O.T. physical. If your unit over 10,000# and has air brakes or air assist, you'll need a CDL with air brakes endorsement. Any big straight truck over 10,001
pounds GVWR MAY require you (in certain circumstances) to
have a minimum of two years verifiable commercial truck driving
experience. We require all drivers with a straight truck to
have a minimum of a Chauffeurs license when you are over 10,001 and under
26,000 #. You also must have at least 2 years of verifiable
experience in order to lease this unit with us, in any straight truck. You will need
an IFTA sticker and do your own fuel reporting if your straight truck is over 26,000# GVW and again, at least 2 years of verifiable experience.
It is law that all drivers must be able to read and speak fluent English
as well as be eligible to work in the United States..
We
have challenging opportunities for new and seasoned drivers.
We are
seeking professionals, preferably:
- with
previous driving backgrounds and
- select
candidates with little or no driving experience who have
the ability to become an industry professional. Either candidate
must pass drug test, criminal background check, have no
felony convictions involving a motor vehicle, no DWI or
DUI in MVR history, have a suitable driving record (no excessive
points), a 10 year verifiable work background, valid drivers
license and be at least 21 years old, regardless of vehicle
type and have at least two years verifiable driving experience
(if you'll drive over 10,001 # GVW only). Candidates must
be organized as well as self directed.
Our
positions offer excellent compensation and other fringe benefits. |

If you
want to earn a modest living or the big bucks, you can. If
you're willing to work hard, you will do just fine. The harder
you work, the more you'll earn. The smarter you operate, the
more you'll save and earn.
Remember, any limitations, restrictions or boundaries that
you set can only help or hinder your paycheck. The company
you pick will also influence your pay check. If you have satellite (Qual Comm),
you'll earn less money since your allowing the equipment to
be installed and your paying rental fees and / or insurance's.
A lot
of expedited carriers out there will not allow you to move
your unit when you empty your load.
You'll
be required to set right where you are and if you move, your
issued a movement penalty, keeping you at the bottom of a
"pecking order" or "next load list". This
is particularly harmful if there's several other units parked
at the same truck stop / nearby location and they have a pecking
order.For
example:
The first to get loads will be the one ton vans, then the
3/4 ton vans, even if the 3/4 ton has been there 5 hours longer.
That particular company says when you get there you stay,
even though there is 5 other units there waiting and they
have been there for a full day already, causing you to wait
in a very long line, and if you move, your penalized, put
to the bottom of the heap or off the board for penalty of
several hours.
We had
a lady van driver tell us she moved from one end of a parking
lot to the other because the sun was in her eyes where she
was parked, and she was bumped to the bottom of the pile when
she was number 3 out, put back to #7 out. This is called "Choice
of Layover Area" or Forced Layover". We do not operate
this way. Often times if a straight truck has been in a pecking
order for a day or more, that unit won't even get a load if
it's at a lesser rate.
Here's
what I mean:
More often than not, a straight truck or tractor trailer is
waiting for a load and the company won't release the unit
to anything but a straight truck or tractor trailer load.
Meanwhile, the unit sets for 2 or 3 days, holding out for
a full load and the company could load those drivers with
a smaller load, for a box truck or a cargo van. Well, it's
better to make a 1/2 a loaf, than no loaf at all? Especially
if the load takes them to a more productive area or an area
not full of 10 of their other units and 10 other companies
units, all, waiting for loads out of that same area.
You don't
want to do this all the time, but to move a unit, spread out
the trucks so everyone is not feeding on the same carcass,
this only makes sense. Some carriers will just let you sit
and sit and sit. THIS WILL NEVER HAPPEN HERE at All Types
®. This is only one circumstance of many ridiculous and
pathetic habits of many carriers. We need money, just like
you do. We tend to be much more aggressive than other carriers.
Period!!!
Any vehicles
over 10,001 pounds are required by All Types ® policy
and the Law, to keep correct, accurate & truthful logs. |

Normally, orientations
are held each week, & when required, more than once a week. Special exceptions for
drivers switching from another carrier, in order to get them
thru orientation and being productive again with us and back
to work quickly - we can get THIS DRIVER, in anytime Monday thru Friday. In these special circumstances, we will do
what it takes to get you thru the system and on the road in
as little as a 4 hour orientation. If your current company is not providing
for you, and your money is getting thin, we will do whatever
it takes to accommodate you as quickly as possible.
Sessions
can last as little as 4 hours but usually last for about 6.
The orientations are held in our Fort Wayne, IN Field Office
facility (Huntertown, In). You can start driving right after
successfully fulfilling orientation. We suggest you start
the next morning while in Ft.Wayne or back from your home.
A rest after orientation & your drive in, is highly suggested.
We are
primarily looking for candidates with long term potential
and a great personality. Those with reasonably strong financial health are highly desired.
This position
offers unlimited upward mobility for those who are flexible,
open for suggestions, able to absorb advice, direction, and
occasional constructive criticism, a hard worker and is determined
to succeed. Stable employment background is preferred but
not mandatory.
Training
will be provided when needed. High earnings potential and
job flexibility are standard here at All Types ® and YOU,
will supply the main ingredients: Ambition, business savvy and reliability.
You'll
earn more by NOT, dead heading home daily or often. The key is to be
sure that when ever your wheels are rolling, you have freight
inside and deadheading is minimal. If you
need to go home daily, please do not apply. Going home daily
is a waste of precious fuel resources and a huge loss eating
into your profit.
If you
have a van or want to get a van and go home often and can
accept a weekly living of $500.00 to $900.00 while wasting
fuel deadheading home, this is fine. At times a daily waste
of fuel is often worth being with family / home more often
- daily. Remember, you will only earn money when you are working.
Working means providing a service (moving freight). |

or new career, please consider All Types ® as your next
contracted carrier.
We are
currently seeking quality owner operators of full size HD
3/4 ton 8' pick up trucks with appropriate caps, full size
regular cargo vans, 3/4 HD or 3/4 or 1 ton Sprinter cargo
vans, cube vans under 10,000 # GVW.

trucks with sleepers (***WITH ICC bumpers & NO LIFT GATES)
and tractor-trailers with sleepers to become part of our fleet.
Eligible units include 16' -24' straight trucks and tractors
with 48' and 53' **air-ride trailers. Just fill out our confidential
on-line application on our web site & we will follow up
to get you moving, quicker yet, just fax in a CURRENT copy
of your MVR to 260.637.4329 (then call 260.637.4330 ext. 111

We have
a reputation in this industry with our productive, dependable

ICC bumpers
are a requirement. If you have a lift gate, it's easy to have it removed and a ICC bumper installed, usually at cost of around $600.00. This is needed to safely lock in at docks
in the "jaws" which is a great safety issue as well
as these jaws typically trigger the dock light to change from
one color to another and in many cases the jaws will also
trigger the dock overhead doors to operate when engaged by an ICC bumper. |
