Why Volume?

Volume Transportation Inc. was founded by Larry Sellers and Joe Coleman in early 1992.

This driver flashed his high beams when I passed him and continued to flash me when I got in front. If you have road rage issues you don’t need to be operating an 18 wheeler. Stay home and contemplate on why you’re so angry.

This company is the most dispicable company ever. They claim to be a family oriented family, but yet they fired a guy who was out with his dying 13 year old grandson who had cancer. Keep in mind this guy kept in touch with them regularly to make sure everything was good and they assured him it was, but these snakes showed their true colors!!! Stay away from this company and take your business elsewhere!!! Find a company who truly describes what they offer what they say they do and represent!

She went out of her way to give a bad review about me to another company that I work for now and she turned around and tried to give my information to a friend of hers at another company, now if that’s not two face I don’t know what is lol 😂

Their drivers have road rage issues. I was getting over in front of one of their trucks a few minutes ago on I95 in Palm Coast Fl to exit while still giving them plenty of room. They got over but still never passed me until I got into the exit lane. Then the driver proceeded to blow his horn and flip me off. Not very professional at all.

I have been driving for Volume, for two weeks. However, I can say, without reservation, this company treats their drivers with absolute respect. The are continuously striving to improve and meet the needs of their clients and they have a real understanding, that to do this, they need happy drivers, to get the loads delivered on time. They truly care about everyone who works with them. They strive to maintain their equipment and how much you make in a week, is really up to you. They will give you great miles, if you want them. If you want to be home more, they will help you with that, too. It's really up to you. They do govern your speed at 65 for the first 30 days. Then up it to 68, as of the time of this post. At this point, and I don't see it changing any time soon, I have finally found my trucking home. I'm truly happy with Volume and I would gladly and whole heartedly recommend this company to anyone, to work for as a driver, or as a carrier of their product.

They are a basic trucking company with out a lot of thrills and frills . .they are improving on there truck quality from international, Volvo to Kenworths , freightliner. The staff of logistics managers keep you busy as much as you wish to work . There are good days and a few slow days or only 200 or 300 Miles trip . Just need to roll with the punches. The shop does well being able to service your truck and they have a safety lane for trailers for service or repairs just have to stop by for about 30 minutes to have a quick.look over . The people in the front office do their best to accommodate drivers mechanics. Fleet managers , sales customer service. All of the staff that work behind the scenes

I have been here in the carbon division for almost 7 months now. I find Volume to be family oriented. The driver managers do not micro manage. The Planners show great patience. Shop personal work hard to keep us rolling. Lastly and most importantly they have delivered on every promise during my recruitment. I enjoy working with the office. Good people. 1YR UPDATE : You can make outstanding money here. They take care of you the driver and your family. Driver managers are exceptional. Volume is a rare place to be and I certainly do not hesitate to appreciate everything they have provided for my family. They are outstanding people. Ken Summerlin

Only worked here a week and the whole week was horrible. From the fuel card not working to having to pay for tolls out of pocket because they failed to tell me that they didn’t install a pre pass because they didn’t have any at the time to the truck not starting and let’s not forget having to wait at a shipper for three and a half hours because no one was at work and also getting blamed for not getting home on time when ever minute that was wasted was of something that happened on their end.

If you are good at backing trailers into docks, and enjoy it, its a good job. The shuttle from plant to warehouse and back can get stressful and drive you a little crazy at times. others get breaks and a lunch break while you keep running trailers. Sometimes it feels unfair but its part of the job. The worst thing is that it's impossible to call in sick if you get sick because there is nobody to cover the job without at least a days notification.
