Just In Time Cargo Logistics


Just in Time Cargo, Inc., located in Costa Mesa, California, stands out as a highly efficient and driver-friendly freight company. The most striking aspect of my experience with them was the remarkably swift approval process for drivers. Unlike many other freight companies, where the approval process can be lengthy and cumbersome, Just in Time Cargo ensures a streamlined and rapid procedure. This expediency is a significant advantage for drivers eager to start working without unnecessary delays.

The company's efficiency doesn't stop at the approval process. Once on board, I found their operations to be well-organized, with a strong emphasis on punctuality and reliability. The staff, from the management to the dispatchers, were professional and supportive, providing clear communication and assistance whenever needed. This level of organization and support reflects positively on their overall service quality.

Moreover, Just in Time Cargo's location in Costa Mesa is strategically beneficial. It allows for easy access to major routes, facilitating timely deliveries and efficient logistics management. This geographical advantage, combined with their streamlined operations, makes them a top choice for drivers and clients alike.

In conclusion, Just in Time Cargo, Inc. is not just about quick driver approvals; it's about maintaining high standards in every aspect of their service.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Company offers competitive pay. Front staff is amazing. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Trying to work with Dispatch as they are from another country. Their accent creates a bit of a problem, as well as trying to get help from them while you’re traveling over the road.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Great work environment. Front staff is always willing to help. Newer trucks at all ways are clean when you are back at home terminal. Other drivers are friendly and everybody seems happy about their job.. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Tim driving with one week out at home for your reset. 12 hours on 12 hours off or however you work it out with your Co Driver

I worked for this company for close to two years. Like every company you have DRAMA. I have to say, it the reason I wrote this review. is it is a good company to start off with and if you’re willing to work, they have the runs for you. They take care of their trucks and gas card. Never any issues with payments on the road if issues. The only recommendation I would say is get to know the people in the office when you pick up your supplies don’t stay more than five minutes, but put a face to your name. With dispatch they do the best they can, that’s all you can ask for. Trust me I went to work for another company for two week. I didn’t realize how spoiled I was at Just in Time. If you’re starting off, use the first year to get your endorsements.

Pros
-consistent work
-great money if you are available for anything
-24/7 dispatch
-new equipment and they have their own mechanics
-always gets you moving or a hotel in case of breakdowns
-weekly pay/always on time

Cons
-1099
-no benefits,time off, pto, etc
-professionalism goes out the window at times 
-very toxic environment 
-it’s not really a company, you’re listed as a contractor that’s renting out all the equipment and on your pay statement it gives you a breakdown as if you’re an owner operator using them as a dispatching service
-not a very big company, they have a really high turn over rate and they make money off the new drivers and a “trainer” babysitting them


All these other 1 star reviews must not have much experience in trucking lol. No trucking company wants you to drive home without a load, and sometimes a company doesn't have anything for you. I was home every 6-8 days, and other companies will have you out for 10-14 for worse pay and tougher consignees to pick up/drop off too. It's a trucking job, like any other, but the loads are mostly lighter and you don't need to even bother weighing it. You get plenty of miles, they pay weekly (even if the first week might have a hiccup from payroll). They pay very well for only a few months of experience, definitely. I recommend.

Just in time cargo is a great comeany to work for.  I typical work week for my self and my partner was a trip to Hebron, Kentucky and back to Compton every week.  nothing out of the ordanary for a trucking company.  I futhered my driving skills with my over the road miles and learned a lot about my self while on the road.  The management was divided so it had its good days and bad days.  It was kind of difficult to function with conflicting ideaologies in the work place.  The hardest part of the job was being away from my son.  The best, most enjoyable part of the job was being able to see the entire country.

Consistent miles great pay, flexible schedule,  next best thing for new cdl holders that would prefer a local job but don't qualify. JITC will have you home weekly which is better than monthly for many new CDL holders. Running with an experience driver as a new cdl holder will get you ready for the rest of your career.
