Communication
At AJG Transport our Operations and Dispatch are made available 24/7 for your needs. Most Drivers expect at least one phone call, checking in on their status in order to promote real-time efficiency. What makes us unlike others, is that we ensure whoever you reach on the phone will be willing and able to answer any of your questions sooner, rather than later. At AJG you can expect your problem not to be handed over to the next operator or for the issue to wait until morning. Doing what we can at any step of the line haul process has kept our on-time performance at 98% when added amongst all logistics throughout the year! If you are a driver that likes to consistently be moving, to have your information when you need it, and to be communicated with respect, then AJG is the place for you to set your roots for the long term.
Transparent Dispatch
AJG will give you, as the driver, the opportunity to suggest the type of routes you would like. With Route minimums throughout the year, the goal of miles is easily reached and your compensation will reflect that, but it’s always more than that. We not only alert you of your next route, but we plan by the week as much as possible. If we have the entire plan for you it will be given, however, there is always going to be the opportunity for more miles! This strategy of Transparent Dispatch gives you the comfort you need knowing you will earn the compensation necessary for a great lifestyle. This process, among others, is as open-source as possible, meaning communication and transparency makes the entire team’s lives easier. The suggestions of routes give our logistics coordinators the ability to plan the best week for you and keep it consistent.
Notice of Compensation (Know What You're Being Paid For With No Gimmicks)
Drivers at ALL TIMES must know what they are being paid for. If there is ever any doubt or question regarding if a task your doing is a revenue-generating action then AJG’s Administrative Team gives the updates in real-time as the questions are being asked. As a Team driver on the road, you are expecting to miss events at home and AJG has time and again made sure you are taken care of for it. At AJG drivers know exactly what they are being compensated for and what is expected as duties to keep us all in business. This relationship only grows for both of us as time goes by. If you have kids at home then we inform you of the compensation difference with more home time. No information is coated in sugar to ensure you pay your bills on time.
Problems Solved in Hours NOT DAYS
There are many different driving positions in a plethora of different companies that promise the world to a team driving position. But at the same time, they fail to mention the problems that you deal with and how they will help you solve them. At AJG Transport, my operations team gives you the best fighting chance of being on the road at all times. With higher standards and the Department of Transportation, our trucks will always be in the best possible shape and we pay for them to look that way. If a tire blows out or the truck is stuck on the side of the road, as a team driver you shouldn’t expect to sit long. You are a Priority and your issue is sent straight to management and not some helpline. In our industry HOURS are what matter and time spent waiting is not time spent driving. With national accounts amongst the fastest expedited mechanic services in the United States there has not been a situation AJG could not get the drivers safe and back home with, not to mention still paid.
