Pottle's Transportation Driver Reviews & Salary

This is the best place I've worked in my life. My superiors treated me with so much respect and so far kept it 100% percent!!.. There's no other place I rather be. Thanks Pottle's Transportation for opening your doors to me especially when I needed the most !!!.. like I've been saying, with pottle's I will continue trucking, Moving forward.

They need to screen/train their drivers better. This guy was tailgating me on the nj turnpike in a semi truck with trailer. All i could see in the rearview was his bumper. Then passing on left where trucks not allowed. There were cars in front of me, couldnt go any faster. Their driver was very unsafe, following too close and a wreck waiting to happen. Truck #3284.

Owner Operator Pottles is a good company but it's always a bad apple in the bunch. Watch out for the one dispatcher he lies about you not taking loads and make things up to get rid of you.

Excellent place to work very kind family-owned business

great company because my father is getting a great deal on buying his truck

I have been an employee over 12 years and they have always treated me like family.

Overall, a solid company with fair pay for the work. Drivers spend five days on the road and two at home. Equipment is relatively new and maintained reasonably well. They offer safety bonuses and show appreciation for their drivers.

Dispatch can be temperamental—if you end up on their bad side, it’s best to quit because you'll be assigned undesirable loads and struggle to earn a decent income.

I've been with Pottle's for over five years and have worked at three other trucking companies during my 21+ years as a professional driver. Pottle’s stands out as the best. Everyone here recognizes the value of each role, creating a strong team-oriented environment. They make sure you're home when needed and prioritize listening to driver concerns. If equipment issues arise, they quickly work to resolve them.

The owner and team are supportive, providing training for new drivers. Their trucks are reliable, primarily transporting water and paper in Maine. The job demands a strong drive to earn money but offers little family time, making it increasingly difficult with age. However, it’s a great starting point for newcomers.

Pottle's is ideal for OTR drivers, ensuring consistent work. They strive to keep drivers moving with plenty of dedicated runs, getting them home regularly. If a driver doesn’t make it home, the company makes it up in other ways.

Great workplace! (The only reason I am writing this is because it is required. I do not offer opinions upon request. Use this however you wish.)

At Pottle's, I learned to work independently. They don’t constantly scrutinize your performance but allow you to develop your own approach. While drivers are responsible for their duties, they have the freedom to make daily decisions.

The team treats drivers like family, offering support and incentives. The trucks are high-quality, and they accommodate drivers when assigning freight loads.

A strong company with a solid foundation. Management is excellent, addressing concerns promptly. They deliver on their promises, including ensuring weekends at home.

It used to be a great family-run business, but now it’s more like other trucking companies. When regional routes transitioned to local ones, getting enough miles became difficult, leading to 60+ hour workweeks.

Pottle’s is a good employer but presents challenges for owner-operators. The coworkers were great, but making money was tough. The most satisfying part was completing the lease.
