Caracas Transportation: Family Values in Flatbed Trucking

In the unique mixture, Caracas Transportation exists: family virtues combined with professional acumen. CDL tasks on flatbed are a variant we present. An ambiance, where encouragement is key, falls high on our priority list – an impact of which is the rare occurrence of driver turnover. Tasks handled by drivers are guaranteed flatbed trucking ones, where training serves as the backbone, fortifying driver confidence in dealing with intricate cargo and the securement of flatbed loads. Driver confidence is something we build, even if it sounds jumbled, offering a more disjointed perspective on that idea.

Pros:

Cons:

If you're looking for flatbed CDL jobs near me or owner operator opportunities, Caracas Transportation offers competitive pay, growth, and a family-like atmosphere.

Why Caracas?

Why Caracas?

Cargo of all varieties is well taken care of by the professionals at Caracas Transportation. In good, firm hands, your consignments are always assured by our dedicated team, available at all times for you. Our low staff turnover creates the best working environment for drivers, reflecting our pride. Partnerships and growth opportunities for development - much more than a job - are what we offer. From the inception, commitment to team development has been our focus. Disjointed, not concrete ideas and examples smoothly fit into the agreement, less so. Using language and expressions of a high school level, casual conversation is banished. The connection between ideas is not evidently clear, though taking an effort to analyze, one might stand a chance at a solid understanding.

Leaders, they were in the OTR driving industry; they're our team of leaders. It's really true: the respect and drive we have for employees who are so committed. It is the drivers, yes, those are the assets most precious - no, priceless. They hold the key, not just any key; they unlock success for us.

Absolutely love driving here. Everything they told me from the time I applied until I climbed in the seat they followed through on. The office staff and the owner are all some of the nicest people I've had the fortune to meet and work with. Amy issues or concerns are addressed immediately. The equipment is top notch. Hope to be here for a long time to come.

Good equipment. Good pay. The dispatch works bankers hours, and does not cover trucks before they get to their destinations. Particularly on Monday. They leave work on Friday with no plan for their Monday trucks. They crunch for loads all day Monday when they could've been covering trucks Friday and Saturday. Very unprofessional in my opinion.
