I have been looking for trucking company in Georgia. Yeah, wish to start my owner operator trucking business and I literally found hundreds of companies at my disposal. For this reason, I was spoilt for choices not knowing which company to go for considering the fact that their advertisement strategies had a lot of convincing to do. Not knowing which company to go for, I decided to do a background check on the companies that I had narrowed down upon and considered worthy giving a try so that I could be able to establish which company would be the new place to call home.

Having done that, I found one Status Transportation Atlanta GA which is nearest to my place. Of course, I would have gone for the company without any hesitation whatsoever but I wanted to be vigilant as possible and give it a good thought. I asked around for people who had found the opportunity to work with them and get to hear their testimonials which turned out to be positive

However, a wise man once said, when the deal is too sweet, think twice and I really wanted to be sure. So today I am taking the liberty to ask through this platform if you might have heard of Status Transportation and what you think of it as an owner operated based trucking company in Georgia? Is there any red flag as to why I should not go for this company?

When I got my first semi-truck, I was very excited to start an owner operated truck business with any decent transportation company. Was very high in hope until I found out how hard it is to find friendly owner operator trucking company; it's definitely not a walk in the park. I got to Status Transportation through one referral and I did not think that it would have been the company that I needed. I have now settled down quite well and I think that this should be the good tucking company for you as well. Though each one preference might vary, so you can just have a talk with them it fits you

Not many people understand it but running an owner operated trucking business is not just driving a truck on the road and delivering loads. Though have not tried them but I have read a couple of Status Transportation reviews and I have to admit that this is impressive and this is indeed the new place to call home for many owner operator. I also got to know that you are assigned an operations coordinator, no one could ask for more, if that's the case.

Not many trucking companies offer services such as assigning an operations coordinator (dispatchers). Its great if Status Transportation does it, I only know of one other company that assigns a dispatcher. These dispatchers have proven to play a very instrumental role in the development of any owner operator business; their support in dispatching your hauls goes a very long way in helping you beat your tight schedules and deadlines.

You have judged correctly. I have been in this business for the past 6 years now and I must admit, the road has not been a walk in the park for me. Jumping from company to company in search of greener pastures but still…I never got a place where I could really establish myself until I landed myself at Status transportation, a company that has displayed outstanding ethical conduct in this trade. Otherwise, I would have been contemplating selling my truck and changing my career.

Most trucking companies, as I have come to learn, will always want to benefit from owner operators in one way or another even if they will seem to make you the beneficiary. However, in as much as they want to benefit from you too, it is important that you go for a company that will have your best interests at heart so that it can be a win – win situation for both parties an if Status Transportation has proved to be this company, why not go for it.

I think it would be a little bit unwise to write off other trucking companies in the market and claim that they are not as good as Status. There are very many good transportation companies in the United States, others with a much better track record on their dealings with owner operators. So you should always be open minded and liberal in trying out new ideas in the future and not just sticking with only one company.
