I inquired about a job and they said they couldn’t help me because I didn’t list my last job, which they never asked on the application. I wouldn’t recommend.

As soon as I walked in confetti rained from the ceiling and I was showered with SWAG . I then was offered a position of global management at a salary that was more money than I could ever spend . It also included a company pickup custom made to my specs and a corner office with no less than 50 screens to monitor. Part of my duties would be watching the screens to catch shop personnel and dispatch goofing off on company time . It all sounded good but my work is more rewarding out here in the trenches. Working with the "common man" so out here on the road is where I shall stay .

Best job I've ever had. Great staff in all departments...... I left Classic Carriers for health issues, and hated to leave. I currently work local but miss the road real bad. Just as soon as I can I will only consider 1 company to drive otr for, and that is Classic Carriers. In the 20 plus years of driving professionally I never had a better job. I've never been treated better by anybody I ever worked for. I wish and hope for the very best for everyone there.

September 5th 2018 3:30 p.m. westbound PennsylvaniaTurnpike, Bedford PA. I'm not sure how you get quality through safety with drivers cussing at other drivers on the CB and tailgating cars at 75 miles per hour (less than one car length). I wish I would have seen the truck number. Not a very professional representation of the company

Starting my 7th year here. 5 as a company driver and 2 as an Owner Operator. I’ve had some great load coordinators over the years only to see them all go. The Owner Jim Subler is world class. Only concerning point comes at the end of the year when Jim retires.

I live 40 miles from Classic had a CDL 28yrs.I bounced around with other companies. Never really gave Classic any thought. In 2017 I leased my truck with them and it only took couple months to realize i wasted a lot of years with those other companies. Everything I was looking for in a company was under my nose in Versailles OH. I'm here I love the Freedom they give me as an Owner Op. the money i make is based on my own work ethic . If I was to start my career over Classic Carriers would be my 1st choice they're all business with a Hometown atmosphere.

Classic bought out my former company back in 2017, and I am fortunate that they did. I've driven for three companies in my twelve years in the industry and Classic is by far the best one. They aren't perfect, but they are fair. Family atmosphere, great dispatch, good maintenance, nice equipment.

Not sure what happen with the one star rating below, but i will say this! I have been here since sept. And i have never been treated with more respect as a driver than I do here. This is an amazing company to work for. They keep you running. You are not just a number here. You have a name. And they all know you by name not only the awesome dispatchers but the owner the mechanics everyone!!! I am not going anywhere as for the pay you can make 50 plus cents a mile after all the bonuses. Cant believe everything you read online

Trucks are not good was in shop every week the hardly wanted to pay the guaranteed amount, they claimed their equipment was top notch even when I called sitting on the side of interstate asked for new truck and was denied. A lot of out dated equipment, post pics on Facebook page stating they are brining in 2019 but it was 1 truck that a owner op purchased tried their hardest to not let you run over 1700 miles.

Stayed out on road for 3-4 weeks at a time, home time as requested. they worked with me during medical times and during Hurricane Harvey and during relocation from storm damage. The company went beyond expectations during process on home purchase problems due to storm. Great company to work for and with

Classic Carriers is ok for a small company, but they didn't have the freight base to keep me running like I wanted to run. My miles were low every week and when I asked for more miles I was given longer loads that had too much time, so my weekly mileage totals would actually go down. Also, they don't have a 24 hour staff, so if you have a problem in the middle of the night, you call a cell phone and wake someone up. That's not very professional in my opinion.
