Estes Express Lines reviews

Equipment availability for city drivers and solo line haul drivers with low seniority. You new guys will not get the best trucks or routes. Estes has been in business for over 85 years. You don't rise up in seniority for the better schedule runs for years. Freight can fluctuate over the course of a year for Extra board drivers. You have to be willing to slug through the grind. Very low turnover at higher Seniority slots. It is worth dealing with. My team run is 6600 miles a week. I will gross over $120k Eventually I will take a lower mile schedule run after I pay off our house. I have built up enough seniority over 10 years. Newer drivers can get into a team slot easier.

Even though they offer a fair hourly wage, it still is not worth the time or energy. Management is an huge issue. Everyone within the company from office, dock, driver, management, corporate points fingers at each other. Does not care one bit about customer service so non stop complaints from customers all day which they have a right to be since nothing is done ethically or correct at Estes. I was forced to figure out things by myself and continuessly lie to customers just to get them off the phone. Not a positive environment. Everyone hates their job and life because of this place. Please, take my advice and find employment elsewhere no matter what wage they offer
