Family Rider Policy
Hunt Transportation has one of the more progressive rider policies in the trucking industry, allowing specific family members to ride along at no cost to the driver. Authorized passengers under the family rider policy are: - Spouse, which includes "common law" spouse where permitted by law
or - One child, stepchild, foster-child or grandchild 4 years of age or younger, provided they are accompanied by the non-driving spouse
or - One child, foster-child, stepchild or grandchild 5 through 18 years of age, with or without the non-driving spouse.
Generally, we allow only one authorized passenger on the truck at any time except children age four or younger who must be accompanied on the truck by the driver's spouse. All authorized passengers must be cleared and authorized by the Safety Department before getting on the truck. Home Time
We believe it is important to get you home frequently. You can expect to be away from home for one and a half to two and a half weeks, depending on where you live. A good barometer to use to keep your productivity high and home time consistent is take one day off for every six days of driving. As an Owner however, you set your home time to meet your business needs.
Load Select Policy
All Company Drivers, Owner/Operators and Fleet Contractor Drivers working for Hunt Transportation will be treated equally with respect to the dispatch of available freight. Our objectives are to provide quality service to our customers, minimize empty miles, maximize the productivity of our drivers and efficient utilization of all available equipment. As a driver, you will receive one preferred load from dispatch. If there is more than one low deadhead, preferred load available, you may be offered a second or possibly even a third load. Preferred loads are determined by the Operations Department Staff and Management based on the following: - Quality, on-time service to our customer.
- Driver's ability to deliver the load on time within the legal requirements of DOT.
- The optimum match of all available freight and equipment to maximize driver and equipment productivity and minimize deadhead miles.
- Dispatching of equipment as it becomes available. First empty, first dispatched.
