I started the hiring process with 2 companies got hired with Western Express with the help of Karla Menendez she was awesome and very helpful. I actually got hired real quickly and started the process with Western Express but chose the other company only because I was from Iowa originally and was familiar with the other company so I chose that company. Karla was understanding and again very helpful through the process. If you want to pursue Western Express contact Karla Menendez she is awesome.

That place is a joke. The staff are there for a paycheck and absolutely are not there for your best interest. Very disrespectful towards everyone. You WILL wait atleast a week or 2 for your own truck after orientation and training without pay too! Hotel is horrible!! Watch out for bed bugs! I packed my stuff and left before signing 6 month contract!

Does the Nashville terminal have driver showers? And if so, where?

Ally L | Oct 4, 2019
Ally L | Oct 4, 2019

To answer my own question: Yes, in the drivers lounge inside the shop. Go in the man door closest to the guard shack, drivers lounge is ckearly posted. Showers are first door on the left. Laundry is the second door. The women's shower is second door on the left just as you enter the shop, next to the nonworking drinking fountain. There is only one.

I've been with Western Exp (Flat Bed) Division For Almost 3 Months and I'm SERIOUSLY Having Communication Issues with My DM=Sam Gregory He's Not Corresponding to my Messages I'd Rather Switch because I see this Hindering My Future! I'm Transparent

D. FreshandFly Boi Morrow | Oct 3, 2020
C.j Coffey | Oct 3, 2020

my hire date was june 4th, my truck was issued to me with no oil in engine, airline to adjustable 5th wheel busted, an wouldn't start. Finally got it rhnning after 2 days then sat on the yard begging for a trailer. My dm mat Thompson communicates very well with me but gives me short runs that have me sitting every weekend for 34reset an failed to get me home with 3 weeks notice. been sitting in a truck stop since Thursday morning an will probably remain here til monday or longer. my experience so far has not been good. i requested a new dm but not certain that will help. my advice is tough it out till something better presents itself. good luck, your not alone in your frustration with this company.

Hi, my question if you lease there truck, who pays for fuel if there pay is low, because I hear very negative stuff about this, please let me know,thanks?

Muhammad Maudarbocus | Oct 4, 2019
Rob J | Oct 4, 2019

You pay, but you use their fuel discount at pilot and flying j. The pay is low for company drivers there's only 1 pay (3 cents) increase after a few months and pay will never increase again. That's the case for company drivers. Not sure for lease. From what I witnessed with my time there the lease drivers are paid slightly more, get more say so on the loads and which part of the country they drive.

How does Western Express get away with hiring a deaf man? I seen it with my own eyes. This company is B's the fact that they don't have a safety department let's you know they are hiding something!

Demetrius Jurineack | Oct 4, 2018
Cheryl. Lockett Alexander | Oct 4, 2018

Legally deaf, semi deaf, who wants to work should not be discriminated. If he was standing on a street corner with a homeless sign you'd have something else to say like, "Get a job". I see a lot of drivers on the road with their music so loud the vibration two or three cars away shakes my car. They aren't legally deaf but they are surely physically deaf to any accident they might have prevented had they heard someone elses horn. Stop discriminating. Western Express is a great company. They aren't a desperate company. They hire a driver because he can do the job. After extensive training drivers go with a Professional Trainer the first month. The Professional Trainer gives the okay to Head Quarters if he thinks a Driver is ready, willing, and ABLE to be a single Driver. No Trainer wants to put their job on the line and okay an unfit Driver. Look at yourself in the mirror. Everyone has some kind of disability. What's yours? Do you like being discriminated? Stop hating.

Hi everyone I would like to ask is it true that Western Express trucking company is hiring a truck driver without experience? I drove a lot here in the Philippines as Uber driver and Grab Drive... Transport Network Vehicle Service (TNVS).

If you've obtained a CDL, they offer further training. Work hard, ignore bitter attitudes, from other drivers, and you'll succeed.

Why do OTR drivers get truck that have problems first my trailer had electrical problems got that fix now for the past three days my tractor have electrical problems I am in greeneville Tennessee with no electric in my tractor March 28 2021

Eric soles | Oct 3, 2021
Justin Kowalyk | Oct 3, 2021

Not all there trucks have problems I used to have a 2016 freightliner and for almost 2yrs and only had one issue with the head gasket and it was fixed in a couple days and now I have a 2020 freightliner for just about 1yr now and haven't had any real problems just with my fridge, microwave, TV, and ps4 I drained my batteries had to get new ones and been fine ever since had the batteries and 2steer tires put on in a couple hours. But the problem is that they hire a lot of people that have no idea about vehicles and just run these trucks into the ground then just drop them off at terminals and since there are so many trucks some of the trucks slip through the cracks

I really need answers please more than a couple. How is the pay and how long is the training before you can go solo? I have heard so much and not good in all my years out here , not to go there. Ii need all the help please I can get info for a friend

Sonja Mc Call | Oct 4, 2019
August Hernandez | Oct 4, 2019

They are a good company, & family owned. The biggest knock may be the pay. Which varies by exp. You'll gross as anywhere from 1000-1200 a week on average depending on your location & experience. They are a "second chance compant" & working there is mostly beneficial to new inexperienced drivers, drivers that have been terminated by other companies, & or the ones that cant get a job anywhere else due to criminal background.

Carl Strong | Oct 4, 2019

Since you been out here for a while you won't need a trainer. They'll put you on a rig. Solo is sliding scale based on the customer.
