You'll make good money doing dock work, city or linehaul. Runs are flat rate but do the math and milage pay is good, hourly pay good, better than most especially being able to be home everyday and don't have to work weekends for good check, but benefits aren't that good. Deductibles very high on medical, 401k match sucks, vacation/pto days start at 5 then 10 after 3yrs. Raise $0.01 for milage, $1 for hourly, max 4yrs. Some trailers are really junky. Will work 10-12hrs. You'll get good pay and home time but below average benefits and trailers. Hard to find a place that has it all.

I've looked into many companies, I'm so glad Central Transport hired me and keeps me busy!! I actually love the great drivers that work with me so there hiring good folks to build there team of drivers. I'm 46 and this is probably the best company I've ever worked for! Great pay great benefits and again a great team of drivers that work alongside of me that I can trust. If your a good driver with a good driving record...Go apply at your nearest location. Alright folks gotta get ready for my run tonight.. #happyemployee

This company is the worst. Do not apply. Equipment is terrible and the pay is a lie. You will hate it there. The managers don't care. The company is a mess.

Typical day is driving for 9-11 hours then 3-4 hours of dock work. Management is terrible or non-existent Best part about the job is the pay is good for the work you do (when they pay you) Payroll is a mess so if you do work here monitor your checks closely

Beware Do Not Work Here!!! Bad Management I was not paid for days worked. Management have been giving me the run around about my pay they act as if they don't care at all. I left after working a month and still haven't gotten my pay.

I got hired on and it was a complete nightmare! Showed up the first week everyday to get sent home because the printer was down. I didn’t think anything of it and showed up the following Monday. Finally got to fill my paper work out. I just obtained my cdl and I am fresh out of school.They promised to train me the first week in the terminal. I was supposed to learn to back up and get trained on the forklift. Well yeah that never happen. They instead sent me out driving with not being able to back up very well. Then after had to unload all of the stuff in my trailer without knowing what to do. Not a big deal, but when you’re getting training pay which is a certain amount a day and working very long hours they’re just simply taking advantage of you! My trainer was very quiet and hard to understand. Also couldn’t stay off his phone all day. He seemed to disappear a lot and tried his hardest to get out of working the docks. Much more, but I hope you get the idea..

You have to wait 3 weeks for your first paycheck no pay. No flexibility with scheduling. Trucks are dirty and management doesn’t know how to communicate properly

Sometimes you have to work longer than expected but if you have experience or been there for a while then you have seniority then obviously you get the upper hand

The 2000.00 per week ad is very misleading. A lime haul driver can work 12-14 hours per day and barley gross 1600.00 per week. The company utilizes “trip pay” to mask that you are only earning .54 to .55 cents per mile (industry standard is .69+). The employees and managers are great people however are severely micromanaged by corporate. Central is a revolving door when it comes to drivers.

No OT pay until after 55 hours a week. I didn’t find that out until after I started working there. No mention of it in interview. Another driver told me my first week on the job. Really turned me off which is why I left.

Worked here for 2 days, ( that they never paid me for) seen everything I needed to see. Their trailers shouldn’t even be allowed to leave their yard! Management is a joke. And if you need anything you have to call “line haul “ and sit on hold. No one in the office can give you any answers. Once you’re hired they just ignore you. Stay away!

Job is flexible but pay sucks. You will peddle with a 53ft in places you shouldn't be with such big of a truck. There isn't any work it's slow. Dispatcher isn't good and the benefit's aren't good neither. The pay isn't good .

Don't get sick. Don't get pregnant. Don't have a disability. Don't have any problems. Unless you get hurt on the job you are not covered. And if you do get hurt on the job and are covered expect for the company or corporate to find a reason to fire you

Management is very unhelpful and highly unorganized. Equipment is very unsafe and dirty. A very stressful work culture. Pushed daily to produce more and faster. The merchandise being shipped is mis handled and very poor shape when delivering to customers. Cti alot of times are unwilling to fix the merchandise or reimburse for damages. They have unrealistic expectations for drivers handling thousands of pounds with a pallet jack. Relationships with customers are very poor and a lot of times the customer is aggravated at cti presence. Management is approcable however unwilling to help because they have a rating system that corporate has put into place and everything is based on that rating.

Great pay. Great people. Linehaul driver. Consistent route. Dispatch was no problem at all. Night hauls were hard to adjust to. Extra runs on weekends were there if you wanted them for the extra money. Could help on dock if they needed it. All and all a very good place to work. Terminal manager was great..

I’m making the same amount i did as a delivery driver. Getting sent all over the place for low pay. I’d be lucky if i made 950 a week. I wouldn’t mind getting sent all the way from the boondocks to a destination 4 and a half hours away if i was getting paid. Mentally checked out

New trucks, everyday you have a different route, have to unload at every stop & do pick ups after you empty the truck then unload your truck at the dock once you return, which make the shifts long. good pay overall good job

What is the best part of working at the company? There are no good parts about working for Central Transport What is the most stressful part about working at the company? Old run down equipment. You put your license on the line daily. What is the work environment and culture like at the company? Everyone is miserable and entitled at the same time. Toxic work environment. What is a typical day like for you at the company? They will expect you to drive more hours than is legal and try to short your pay too.
