Why Barney?

Why Barney?

In 1947, when Glen Barney bought a truck he drove at a local mine, Barney Trucking was founded. The mine owner, impressed by Glen’s incredible work and commitment to the job, offered him the chance to buy the truck. Glen eagerly accepted and began building the company. His strong work ethic and commitment to great service are the reasons for the company’s success. These values are still an important part of the company’s culture today.

Thanks for breaking my windshield and putting a chip in my bumper. Then calling it road debris. I sent them dash cam video of the incident. I have fought with them for a month to no avail. Side note, the driver left lane lofted all the way through town.

This company does not get my vote. One of their Trucks clearly sent a rock through my windshield and they refused to pay for it calling it road hazard. I have a police report and will be filing charges. They could have easily just replaced my windshield. Bad company business.

May 2,2018 at 7:15 am. Just got passed while going the speed limit by one of your double tanker trucks with an Idaho license plate ending it 605. The driver passed on a double yellow line on a two lane highway going southbound through Spanish Fork Canyon. I don’t appreciate the drivers disregard for everyone’s safety and lack of professionalism.

This is company is absolutely horrible to work for. Inconsistent with hours, pay is never increased, they work you 10-14 hours a day for $300 max! Give “incentive” pay which they will tell you is hazmat pay for running a hazmat loads. They try to tell you they will take it away as they please. They are rarely working 5 day weeks. It’s best to work at their competitors because they pay hourly not by load. Don’t waste your time

What is the best part of working at the company? Best part was when I left the company. What is the most stressful part about working at the company? Not being able to make any money. They work your butt off all week to make $800 What is the work environment and culture like at the company? Good working environment just the management was terrible. What is a typical day like for you at the company? Get up at 11pm because your shift starts at 1am then work all day till about 4pm then the next day you go in at 6am. Never a set schedule.

Add is very deceptive, hourly pay is only training wage. After training you are paid per load. They are very secretive about what that amount is until you are assigned the load. Most loads average pay per hour based on time calculates to $25 per hr Advertised breakdown is $28 per hour but that isn’t true. The first 1/2 hour is donated to the company and you are paid 90% which is $25.20 per hour. Paid holiday but are expected to work if it lands on the day of week you normally work. And advertise 10 PTO days, but those 10 days are not paid its unpaid days. And come April they pay 2% of gross of your pay which equals to only 1 week pay. As you can see. Deceptive employers are the cause of driver turnover in this industry. And Barney is no exception until the industry decides to change the driver turnover will never change. Pay drivers for their work, please notice all the work performed that is not compensated. You want safe drivers be willing to pay for them.

Trucks run day and night with slip seating. cooperation and communication with partner driver is a must. Management is not always available. One must be able to work independently and problem solve, and use good judgment. Truck are not always repaired when needed but put on an, as we can get to it list.

For a long time when i started it was a great company because of the people that made it so. Alot of hard work is required. Expect to run doubles. you will hit your 65-68hrs a week. You will use your 16hr exemption occasionally on your Logs. when i left i was only making 1100 a week. Maybe theyve upped their pay to be more competitive. But im hauling Intermodal now and its stupidly simple and pays better. Its a major learning curve too if your hauling Pneumatic Tankers. They use Smooth Bore and Compartmentalized tanks. Good luck with Compartmentalized tanks filling those suckers sucks lol You cant have any restrictions on your license as far as manual restrictions go cause all their trucks are manual. If you haul hazmat for them your gonna be wearing the rubber suit in winter and summer during your unloads. Unload times vary with product but 20min- 8hrs depending on if its a liquid or bulk product or and what tank its going in.

I have been an employee with Barney for a little over a year and a half. During that time, I have learned a lot about this field, which I personally believe to be better than most other trucking job environments. A typical day with this company usually involves saying hello to your friends. I really don’t like the “big corporate saying of “”everyone is family””, but at Barney, I know these people care about each-other in more than a coworker fashion. You really do build lasting friendships with the people you work with, which is very comforting when you get to learn new things, and Barney will teach you anything you want to know, from different trailers, different runs, how to repair things, more in-depth explanations of how things work in the truck, etcetera. I don’t want to brag, but I feel as if I have years of experience under my belt albeit only being in this industry for the aforementioned time above, just because of the quality of education and opportunities I have been presented. As far as workplace culture goes, it was a little nerve-racking going into this field, because what’s the first thought that crosses someone’s mind when they hear “trucker?” Probably something along the lines of rude, smells like cigs and cusses like a sailor… and while the latter stereotype MAY be true for some of us, I have actually never met a group of people more focused on caring for one another and being accepting of people of all backgrounds, races, ethnicity, gender/gender identity, physical expression or otherwise. I really think Barney knows how to pick the good ones. There are some downs, as with any career, the hardest part about this job being the daily challenges that any trucker deals with. Weather, traffic, wildlife, things like that. Since Barney is a dry bulk hauling company, it is a lot of in and out of mines, which are typically in mountainous or wild terrain, which can be a little scary sometimes. However, Barney really makes up for that by allowing drivers to drop loads if they do not feel 100% safe doing so. They will NEVER risk your life and safety for a load. EVER EVER EVER!! And I know this to be quite opposite with other truck companies… I want to note that being a company that specializes in dry bulk material, with the mines and mountains, you sure do get some gorgeous gorgeous scenery at times. You almost forget you’re at work, driving down the highways, favorite tunes on, spotting a fox here or a bald eagle there. That’s definitely a plus for me. I do not think I would be in this industry long if I was a pavement prince. Backing into a dock? In the middle of a city? Waiting hours to get unloaded?? No thanks. I’ll stick with BT for sure

I was let go do to not getting along with dispatch. You have to be a suck up to work at this company. And don't talk to anybody about any other company or they get mad about that. I received a text message after I was let go asking why I was recruiting other people to another company mind you this was why I was still working for them. And after they did not pay us our correct wage multiple times. When I got hired on they even said watch your checks because they do not always pay correct. And despite what they say I was making $1,200 a week and no that is not good over here you want to work for a good company allowing you to work as many hours as you want make as much money as you want go to Savage service's or even reddi services this company is the definition of suck up.

Barney Trucking is the low ball specialist. They'll pay you by the load, so when you get caught in traffic jams or long delays at the copper mines, you'll be waiting around for hours on your own dime. You're essentially working for free during hours that should be paying time and a half. No wonder every driver has switched over to the companies that pay by the hour.

They work with you for the time you need off, but it us still the coal haul (for the most part) so work is pretty dependent on the mine. But they do have some other stuff with airslides and acid that I never got involved in.

This company is good for anyone who is just starting out and wants to learn to drive doubles. However they will not pay you enough for what you are doing. They pay per load so if you hit traffic or if it takes longer to load/unload you make less per hour. You are always pulling doubles and weighing between 116,000-129,000 pounds and won't make more than $22 an hour. Also they don't pay overtime since it's per load. So if you make $22 an hour at 12 hours a day your equivalent to someone making 18.50 that gets paid overtime.

I’ve worked at the the company for a few years. At first it was all good. But for the last year or so, it just seems like the company is getting more and more greedy. It’s seems like they are not willing to compete with other carriers. The pay is decent when you are able to get both loads.
