FREYMILLER TRUCKING

What is the best part of working at the company?
The long haul miles are accurate but the problem of waiting for new loads slows down the total accumulation of miles driven for the week. It is possible to get over 3,000 miles a week but it is not consistent . Freymiller starts drivers off at .50cpm so an 1,800 mile week is $900 before deductions. Freymiller is a fair company to work for but you won't make a lot.of money.  I average $4,500  monthly.  The equipment is nice. Mostly Peterbuilts. They do need another terminal,  they only have 1 terminal at their HQ in OKC, OK. their office staff are over worked. Fleet managers manage 60 drivers on average if all the fleet managers are working.  When they are out, the other FM have to pick up that responsibility as well. 
Freymiller runs the lower 48 states but only pays zip code to zip code. Not pay per practical mile. Overall,  I rate Freymiller better than average.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
I am not a fan of driving recap hours and Freymiller routes a lot of routes on stste highways,  in the dark, with poor lighting with cars and trucks driving opposite direction with their high beams on, it makes it difficult to drive night time. Also, sometimes the pick up and delivery dates are so close in correlation to the distance of travel, you must press and usually arrive within the hpur of the schedule appt 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
The office staff and FM are friendly and professional.  The drivers are helpful of you have questions.  Freymiller has a pet policy that is flexible and trucks and trailers are maintained pretty good.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Sometimes I drive 11 hours a day... other times ..8.5 hours if I want to run recap hours 8 days later.

in my 28 years in the industry I can say with a clean continence that they are your typical trucking company. Recruiters tell stories to get you in, the orientation gives minimal information, Drive Managers are so far from being managers of any kind or even dispatchers its ridiculous. Main haul is beef where you have a 12 hour pickup window  so you will sit, delivery is waiting as you will get detention pay for every load. You make more money running and not sitting for detention pay. 
         The people are very polite and nice and the equipment is newer, (2-3 years old) and getting new ones in all the time. They hire typical rookies so everyone gets the same pay with poor bonuses and raises. If they paid 75 cents a mile or 20% of the load for company drivers and were pickier about who they hire it would be a better company. I can never get dispatch to assist me in getting the loads off me when I arrive early so I have to wait. 
  They are a great company for people starting out but if you have 5 years exp or more I would choose another company. They are better than most when it comes to 600 trucks or more I will give them that positive reinforcement. 
    The eld they use is confusing, the fuel card may or may not work, the insurance is trash, pay is below standard, no prepass or tolls so you avoid every scale house and toll road when you run. They charge you for load locks, pad locks, 5th wheel pull handle if you need it or not when they issue it to you and you cannot refuse any of it.
    I will stay here until I can find another company to drive for or I can't pay my bills, depending on which happens first.
          If you compare them to any major carrier they are much better but  follow the same program.

This is one of those jobs that could have been a great deal if all parties involved told the truth. But like most trucking gigs they just tell you what you want to hear in order to get in the door and then play dumb when you call them out on it. I don't prefer to go into detail about my experience working here but I hope and pray your experience is better than mine. Best advice I can give drivers getting started in this field - Don't haul refrigerated unless you absolutely have to. I will say that many of the issues I had while working at this company had very little to do with the company itself. They were more industry related. The shippers and receivers at these grocery warehouses are nothing but lying thieves who care absolutely nothing for the drivers who risk their lives on a daily basis in order to deliver the very food that they(warehouse employees) themselves need in order to survive. My advice to the employees working at those places - try to show the driver a little respect next time you have dealings with them. Trust me, a little respect goes a long way in this business.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Absolutely nothing they don't fix truck's,you go to yard and your stuck there for a week, nobody in dispatch talks to each other, and you have to give two weeks notice to go home and it still takes you another week to get home to have home time then two days later they want you to go back out I'm out for 37 days before I get to come home and one week I have to fight for home time not worth working there pay is bad

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Everything trucks are dirty when you get them no body cares and shop don't know what there doing to fix truck's dispatch doesn't give you details about the loads and you have to use your cell phone to scan bills 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Dirty and bathroom never works and people smells and there all about dog's and not the truckers family 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Stressful  and always trying to get details about the liads

Work-life balance
Work-life balance at FREYMILLER TRUCKING is
Typically 90/10 as most otr trucking are

Pay & benefits
My pay and benefits at FREYMILLER TRUCKING are at the lower end of the scale. However, their trucks are mostly at the higher end. With APUs, fridge, tv mount, and  higher end trim packages interior and exterior

Job security and advancement
In terms of job security at FREYMILLER TRUCKING, I think if you run when and where they tell you, you'll be fine. Hometime is often an issue.

Management
In general, fleet managers at FREYMILLER TRUCKING are often stressed and overworked. They seem to spend most of  their days putting out fires. Very little interaction with individual drivers unless you have an issue.

Overall
My experience working at FREYMILLER TRUCKING was typical for the industry. A lot of good and bad. The length of haul was often 1100 miles and 100 percent no touch freight. Repowering other drivers loads was always a mess and often badly planned by dispatch.

The company started off amazingly, we were given consistent miles and pay was very reasonable weekly. Then, as with most companies after a month or two it tapered off. Wait times between loads became longer and detention times didn't make up for it. Especially when if I'm 10 minutes behind because of something unforeseeable I'm traffic, I get charged 350 dollars which comes out of my check, when the pay is already subpar. But if I get there early, I have to wait around until 2 hours after my appointment to get a little bit of detention pay, and even then half the time you never see that. The back office at times is supportive and then at other times it's a good old boys game. Somehow if you don't fit into their criteria of who they prefer to work with, you're sent to areas where there's definitely going to be a blizzard or some ridiculous weather and you end up stuck there for several days while the red hat brigade is sent to the places where the weather is perfect. They play favorites for sure.

What is the best part of working at the company?
They will keep you moving.  But the pay is way too low for today’s economy.  I worked there for 4 months.  The entire 4 months I never went home.  At the end of the 4 months I had a medical reason to go home.  After I got home they fired me.  Then so I couldn’t get unemployment, they lied to the state of Oklahoma saying I had quit voluntarily.  Their safety department forced me to take hometime and go home.  And while I was home the fired me , and lied to the state of Oklahoma saying I had quit.  Then once that got straightened out, they claimed I was unfit to return to work, another lie.  They fired me back in April of this year, and I’m still trying to get everything straight with the state of Oklahoma to get my back from unemployment.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
A lot of sitting and not driving

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
The work environment and culture is great until you have a medical emergency.  Then they throw you away like trash.

As an OTR driver, my experience with Freymiller has been very positive. The company treats drivers with respect and professionalism, which makes a big difference when you're spending weeks on the road. Dispatch is supportive and works hard to keep drivers moving with consistent freight and minimal downtime.

The equipment is well-maintained, and safety is clearly a priority throughout the company. Pay is fair and delivered on time, and whenever I've had an issue or needed assistance, the office staff has been responsive and helpful.

What I appreciate most is the family-oriented atmosphere. Even though it's a large operation, Freymiller makes drivers feel valued rather than just another truck number. I would recommend Freymiller to any driver looking for a stable company with good communication, reliable miles, and a strong commitment to its drivers.


Communicating with customers was the focus. Ensured deliveries were on time. If needed, was responsible for a solution to a delivery issue. The night and weekend CSR position should be knowledgeable of all of the customers that the company has. This knowledge needs to be who and how to contact in the event that an issue of on time delivery is occurring. Track all of the trucks in order to find issues, and resolve those issues without any issues with on time delivery. When first starting, the day CSR was instrumental in advising who to contact. The hardest part of the job was rescheduling deliveries during the night or on the weekend, as no one was at the delivery point during this time. The most enjoyable was finding a solution to maintain on time service. In the transportation industry, this is most important.

From the speed of the truck to the length of orientation I ve been given different information from day 1. My first week I did over 3,000 miles, 2nd week about 1500, 3rd week about 1500, 4th week 2200 which took 6 days. They tell you that you get 48cpm, you think okay but then I’ll have my per diem, nope- you make .315 cpm plus .165cpm per diem to total.48cpm. NOT Good! The pay is below sub par not to mention they nickel and dime you for everything so make sure you go over your truck with a fine tooth comb. The one I got was a 2020 but was in an obvious wreck with the collision messages still on the peoplesnet. The experience here has been not the greatest. There are better companies out there if you’re experienced which I am. My first hometime is in the latter part of January and I believe I’ve made my decision to go somewhere else.
