Anyone here run a Sprinter or cargo van for Prestige Expedite?

Robinn35 · Aug 24, 2013

I just signed on my Sprinter with them. Does anyone have any feedback on this company? They have local offices in a ton of cities and I heard good things from their local drivers, but I haven't met any OTR drivers yet. If you drive for them how many miles are you averaging? Thanks for any feedback!

Kind of late to ask this when you already signed on.

That's what I thought.
Input now is better than no input at all.
It'll help him/her to understand what he sees going on.

They pay on time and treat you decently. Tough to get freight at a decent rate, although you may do better with a Sprinter than I have with a flattop.

Thanks for that feedback. I was told it was .90 cents a mile for Sprinter loads and I am ok with that. If you don't mind me asking do they keep you busy with miles?

From what you heard from Prestige drivers, as long as you stay within the Midwest, they'll keep you busy... if you go farther, it's gonna be hard to get ya outta there with a load.

That sounds like a description of over 80% of the expedite companies. Leave the circle at your own peril.....

Thanks everyone for the feedback so far. I'll start doing runs for them this week

A number of years ago I signed on with them when they were doing mainly courier work. I stuck it out for three weeks. let's just say the truth was not a priority at the hub I worked out of...

ran with them for a short time in 2011. I can tell you that I was treated extremely well and, although the freight was sparse, it was more an issue with my van's capabilities than with the efforts of their dispatch. Pay was always on time, dispatchers went out of their way to find you loads and I was never promised anything they didn't do. Best of luck to you !

So, they put your van on and then couldn't use it.

O.K.......
