They were great to work for, should never have left
I was just out of my lane by your truck in Jacksonville, Fl. He didn’t see me and he changed into my lane forcing me off the road.
Rafael you made comment saying teach your driver's to pull forward...I do agree some are lazy and too far and out of shape to walk any further from the pump. That's why their fat and out of shape. Only next time you put a picture on here pay attention to the angle of your camera because both fuel islands on either side were empty and you made yourself seem just as bad in a different way from complaining.
The driver takes their 10 hr break in front of a loading dock keeping deliveries from being made.
On 12/16 driver from your truck 665 did a awesome help to one of our driver. Our driver got broken down on side of the road due trailer wheels locked. After several attempts to reach a roadside , but one of them show up . Your driver pull over , find the part trailer needed and replaced in minutes . He left and our driver dint asked his name . Please tell your driver THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR HIS HELP , we had more than 6 hours waiting for roadside assistance . Our driver can get delivery facility in time thank you to have such a awesome driver . Please let me know that we appreciate it ,we only have tractor # and company on Dashvideo hopes our thanks be delivered . Kottke drivers are awesome 👏 THANKS !
It's a very good company to work for I will recommend working for the company it's a very good company
So Far So Good!! Just have to clean your own teuck when you get it button Stress Yet
I used to drive for them, great family owned company. Good people and very nice trucks. I might drive for them again, I live in Tampa, Fl. Not far from Wildwood.
A great place to work for they maintain there trucks I can say that. My truck had a issue with the headlight they did not try to cheaply repair it instead they changed both. The dispatch is the best anytime you have an issue there is someone 24/7 to talk to. I love it here.
I love kottke I haul loads for them they are awesome broker
Great place to work. Highly over the top recommend
Had to leave because of family medical issues, but if I chose back over the road, they will be my first phone call.
I’ve been driving for the Kottke’s part time local work for almost 2 years now, as a new driver they have treated me extremely well with giving me nice clean safe equipment and adequate pay and they have a full time fleet of professional drivers. And as a driver I know they are always on time and provide professional service for their customers. They are a well oiled machine and continue to take their stand as a superior company in the trucking industry.
Best company to work with !!Family-oriented and very honest people working there !!. A very good team always listens to drivers and work with you to make you happy
It’s not a bad job overall, although the shifts are really long—ranging from 17 to 26 hours. The pay is fixed salary, so you earn what you earn. The trucks could definitely use replacing, but aside from outdated equipment, the company was okay.
This is an excellent company to work for as a driver. The trucks are well-equipped, the HR department is outstanding, dispatch is highly organized, and the shop is efficiently managed. Every department is driven toward its goals. In simple terms, if you're a driver, Kottke Trucking is a place you’ll enjoy working.
I would have been much happier there if there had been better mileage opportunities. Unfortunately, the management of load assignments was poor. I stayed with the company for 10 years, hoping things would improve, but they never did.
This company isn’t bad, especially considering it’s family-owned, and they treat drivers well. However, they gave me an old truck with high mileage that had numerous mechanical issues—it broke down three times within three weeks.
It’s a great company where you're treated as a person, not just a name. While the pay could be better, the staff is fantastic. They have excellent routes, reliable customers, and plenty of freight. The only downside is there’s no reset available.
Being away for two weeks at a time isn’t ideal for me, but overall, it’s a solid company. The pay is decent, and they don’t enforce a strict “34 and out the door” policy. The equipment is in acceptable condition.
This is a good company, but they’ve grown too fast, taking on too many new drivers and accounts. They’ve outpaced their support staff. While the pay and benefits are generally great, there have been some cuts this year.
No concerns raised by drivers were ever ignored, from your fleet manager on up—even the company owners were responsive. They genuinely cared and didn’t dismiss driver issues. Problems with trucks were resolved within days, not weeks. The only downside was I wasn’t allowed to park the truck closer to home in a secure location, which was approximately 200 miles one way. Ultimately, I had to leave for personal reasons—family medical emergencies and long driving distances.
This is a great group of people to work with. The management is solid, the maintenance team is top-notch, and they offer flexible time off if you give advanced notice. Dispatch is helpful, accommodations are reasonable, and fair treatment is provided.
