Hi brother I’m driver out of Charleston SC looking to get back on with Marten dedicated accounts Wondering what kind of accounts are in my area?!? Thanks Brandon
I did orientation at the Zionsville terminal. It was real chill and laid back. Lots of vids and quizzes of course. Just computer work. Road test, and agility test and it’s a piece of cake. Nothing hard about it
Absolutely. It’s all about time & trip planning. You leave early enough and make sure you have cushion for bathroom breaks, fuel, and emergencies. Also, keep in mind the speed changes for construction work, state highways vs. interstates and vice vs. also you will be surprise the amount of people (cars) you pass just doing 65.
@@MrJodyh54 Marten only has front facing cameras that point to the road. There is no inward facing cameras. We don’t have a system that tell you how to drive but if you’re speeding, running stop signs, running lights… the camera will detect it and record it.
Brother you are playing with your CDL, unless you’re above mistake, a little mistake martens will fire you and immediately put your information on DAC report making impossible to get another job, you have to resign from marten immediately
@@TheBrandonBrews glad to hear things seem to be working out for you at Marten. You really help me and I assume other new drivers. Looking for ward to hearing how things go moving forward
Exactly 11 more weeks and I’ll have had my cdl for 1 yr through a different company. Tired of fighting for money lol. Was told to wait until I could apply but that Min guaranteed for different accounts all work for me cause I need my coin!
@@MrJodyh54 the stipulations are you just doing your job. Scanning in paper work in a timely fashion, showing up on time for a delivery, no preventable accidents, no turning down loads and driving safe.
My man. Just be very careful with driving. Don’t make a preventable accident or a traffic violation etc. marten will fire you and make sure you can’t find another job
Following you brother. Keep safe hopefully i will get my CDL SOON.
Thanks for watching. I appreciate it. Blessings to you on your trucking journey.
Facts 4:20 when you say chasing the miles .. this one guy said be loyal to your paycheck
FACTSSSSS. That go drive and see the world mess don't make any sense if the check isn't going to make sense.
I’m from CA and I’m with CR England rn just tryna get the experience up, definitely want to look into marten when the time comes.
Read the truckersreport reviews first. They seem to be a horrible company.
@@LetItFlyDebo I like Marten a lot. Be safe out there 🙏🏾
Don’t, protect your cdl,
Hi brother
I’m driver out of Charleston SC looking to get back on with Marten dedicated accounts
Wondering what kind of accounts are in my area?!? Thanks Brandon
Hey there. I would suggest talking to your recruiter. I was hired on local dedicated so idk Marten outside of dedicated. Be safe brother 💪🏾
I start with marten tomorrow. What should I expect for my three day orientation?
I did orientation at the Zionsville terminal. It was real chill and laid back. Lots of vids and quizzes of course. Just computer work. Road test, and agility test and it’s a piece of cake. Nothing hard about it
Did u do a urine test or hair follicle?
Marten only does urine test and they random drug test as well . I work for marten and I been random drug tested 3 times in 5 years
@@nonam3s473 awesome thanks man !
Rookie question with 65 Mph you still make it to your appointments on time?
Absolutely. It’s all about time & trip planning. You leave early enough and make sure you have cushion for bathroom breaks, fuel, and emergencies. Also, keep in mind the speed changes for construction work, state highways vs. interstates and vice vs. also you will be surprise the amount of people (cars) you pass just doing 65.
I have 6 months experience. Thinking about joining. Is it hard getting on a dedicated account?
I was hired on this dedicated when I came. I say ask the recruiter what’s available in the area starting out, vs. saying otr or regional
Did they make you train with a trainer OTR ?
No. Marten does not train.
Hey man hopefully all is well, really debating on joining marten or Crete, question for you, what kind of eld does marten use?
Marten Uses Platform Science Tablets
FYI-they have cameras on you and it also tells you how to drive your truck. Read truckersreport reviews.
@@MrJodyh54 Marten only has front facing cameras that point to the road. There is no inward facing cameras. We don’t have a system that tell you how to drive but if you’re speeding, running stop signs, running lights… the camera will detect it and record it.
So you didn’t have to go with a trainer?
@@Yep-y6e no. Marten does not have trainers. It isn’t a training company. You have to have at least 6 months of experience.
Where are they located I'm in Michigan
Nearest terminal I believe is in Zionsville, IN… basically Indianapolis.
Are you still with Marten?
@@ricardogosselink7414 no. I got laid off
@@TheBrandonBrews Why???
@@PassportBro-Trucker they lost the contract to the dedicated I was on. They laid off 30 people

Are you driving tanker?
No. Only dry van now.

That’s what’s up. Early congrats on year. That’s exactly what’s been working for me. I literally know how much my checks are going to be. Be safe bro.
15 weeks for me 😂
That guarantee pay has many stipulations. You do no really get that pay each week. Read truckersreport reviews first.
