“Driving for Watsontown Trucking has given me the opportunity to drive for a great company which offers each of its employees outstanding equipment to work with, an excellent team of office personnel which understands the needs of a truck driver and a group of dispatchers and mechanics who are second to none. I personally have been told several times of my performance and attitude and that alone makes me feel like I am a part of a very important team and not just another driver with a number. Working for Watsontown Trucking has given me the financial stability to raise my children and support my household with confidence. I am glad that I have joined a winning team which has made it easy to go to work each day and enjoy the career path I have chosen for myself.”

“I have been driving trucks since 1972 in one form or another, and in all my years it’s always been the same. Trucking companies promise you the world and then find any excuse to break that promise. Well, I’m here to tell you with Watsontown, there are no excuses. They have proven to me that by working as a team, I can enjoy great quality home time with great pay. I even get home for my 34-hour restart breaks more times than not. This is no small company and everyone knows me by name. The shop is top notch and even the mechanics know my name. I’m not just a truck number. Everybody, from the owner down to the last person hired, is friendly, courteous, and makes me feel welcome when I get back in the yard. I came to work here in March 2007, hoping for a decent job. Instead, I found a home and family and am proud to say I work for Watsontown Trucking Company. The last job you’ll ever apply for.”
