In reply to your question concerning Express-1, they are not an expediting company that I would recommend anyone signing on with! This company has serious in house problems, starting with employees of Express-1 being fleet owners. They also have what I like to call non-verbal forced dispatch, what I mean by that is Express-1 will tell you that you don't have to take every load, but when you refuse one they hold it against you. The dispatch group at E-1 is very corrupt they will tell you as an owner/operator that things are slow and no runs are coming out of an area that you are in and all the while they are pre-assigning in house fleet owned trucks loads right under your nose. Many owner/operators have had this happen to them. I personally have caught them red handed at this. There are also fleet owners that are getting a higher paid linehaul $1.20 per mile compared to your $1.12 and they were also giving a higher fuel surcharge to multiple truck owners I've heard as high as .13 cents a mile more than a single truck owner operator. Sorry to be so down on these guys but somebody has to tell it like it is. Express-1 is hiring trucks on every Monday and losing them at about a 70% clip, think about it!! Iam not a disgruntled ex-owner/operator, I am an owner/operator along with many others who have lived this night mare. OWNER/OPERATORS BEWARE OF EXPRESS-1
