I've been with Averitt for 19 years. That entire time, they've always been by my side. They have never let me down!

Darrell Wooten

Team Shuttle Driver // 24-Year Team Member

As the years progressed, I got comfortable with what I was doing, the great people I was working with. Everybody knew me by name, not by a number. And, they treat you just like family.... And I didn't want to leave the family. It's been an awesome experience.

William Watson

Regional Driver Trainer // 22-Year Team Member

I like the stability. When the economy got slow, we kept working. These days, you never know, but I feel secure here at Averitt.

Randy Duke

Maintenance Associate // 36-Year Team Member

“Everything Averitt says they’re going to do, they do. A lot of places say things to get you in the door, but once you’re there they have amnesia. Not here.”

Yonda Thompson

Truckload Driver // 3-Year Team Member

"I get approached all the time, at fuel stops, you name it. And I let people know the benefits of working with Averitt. Between the pay, the benefits, and being home every night (or in his case, day) I haven’t seen any company do it better.”

Devin Rackley

Dedicated Driver Trainer // 12-Year Team Member

Jesus went to driving school to find his freedom on the road. While there, he heard about Averitt and signed on. But he was still restless. “I took a break for one year. Went to another company. But there’s no place like Averitt, so I came back.” A decision urged by those closest to him. “My kids, they knew Averitt was a good company. When I quit, they said ‘you need to go back.’” Shortly after returning, he brought on a team member from the company he’d been with for a year. “I used to talk about Averitt all the time. So once I was back, he called me.” And they’ve both been here ever since.

Jesus Basilio

Dedicated Driver // 11-Year Team Member

Prior to joining Averitt, he briefly drove with another company. But he soon realized it wasn’t a fit. “They’d tell you one thing, then do the other. But with Averitt, if they say you’re going to get a certain number of miles a week, you get those miles. No matter what.”

Andres Garcia

Dedicated Driver // 4-Year Team Member

“I feel appreciated, and they treat me well. I’m known by a name, not a number. You feel like you belong. You feel like you’re loved.”

Brandi Scott

City Driver // 4-Year Team Member

“I checked Averitt out. They had good trucks… good equipment… so I called ‘em up.” And he’s had no reason to regret the decision. In fact, a phrase you’ll hear from him often in describing his experience is “top of the line” – which covers everything from the equipment, to the customers, to his fleet manager.

Rafael Sierra

Regional Driver // 3-Year Team Member

When asked for some of the things that have contributed to his longevity with Averitt, he’s quick to answer. “It’s the way they treat their drivers. They really help you out.” Like the time he was called for jury duty, and had to phone in to the courthouse every day to learn whether or not he had to appear. “I told my fleet manager, and he set me up on a lot of short runs, so I wouldn’t just be sitting around,” he says. “I really appreciated that.”

Douglas Garrett

Regional Driver // 16-Year Team Member

He recommends Averitt “because they’ve been good to me.” And he knows that feeling is shared by others. “I’ll give you an example. I was driving one Saturday down I-40 in Tennessee, just minding my own business. And a guy in a black Honda rolls up beside me, honks the horn, flashes his Averitt badge, and heads on down the road. He was just saying, ‘Hey, man, I appreciate you.’ And I thought that was really cool.”

Ben Barnett

Regional Driver // 7-Year Team Member

“You feel almost like you’re part of the family. Everyone around you cares…cares about your opinion and how you feel. I hear horror stories of drivers at other companies who are just treated like a number.It’s not like that here. It’s very special.”

Bob Jones

Shuttle Driver // U.S. Veteran // 22-Year Team Member

“I’m very proud to be a driver here. Makes me stick my chest out a bit.” “The people I work with are wonderful. That goes for Leadership too.They talk to you with respect. And that means a lot. I love the people I work around. If it wasn’t a good job, I’d already be gone!”

Robert Brown

Dedicated Driver // 21-Year Team Member

One of his favorite parts of working with Averitt is that “it’s constantly growing, and there’s a family-like atmosphere where the associates are always building on each other. There’s always room for growth.”

Chris Attkisson

Frontline Leader // U.S. Veteran // 4-Year Team Member

“I get asked a lot how it is here. The pay and benefits are good, and the people you work with are excellent. There’s nothing you can’t ask them for. That’s what I like about Averitt. Everybody tries to help each other out, and that’s what it’s all about.”

Dave Clark

Regional Driver // 9-Year Team Member

“I like the fact that the company takes pride in the way we look. The customers appreciate it. I like it too. And the red and gray don’t show dirt as easily!”

Rick Tetreault

Regional Driver // 15-Year Team Member

“It’s a family-oriented place. You become close-knit. It’s the kind of place where everybody’s in a good mood. The work is getting done, and you know that if you need help there won’t be a problem. I tell people that, and they say ‘wow, man… that’s alright!’”

Darryl Benton

Dock Associate // 29-Year Team Member

“To see people that work on the dock, who get everything together and get those drivers out on the road, to see how dispatch keeps everything moving, how well everyone works together as a group, I thought ‘wow, these people really put forth a team effort to get the job done. That’s what I want to be a part of.’”

Patricia Justice

Shuttle Driver // 9-Year Team Member

One of the main differences she’s noticed between Averitt and her former employer revolves around communication with leadership. “They don’t keep to themselves… they make themselves known. And they know you by your first name. They make you feel welcomed. It feels more like being part of a family than being an employee. And being a new hire, there’s always help to be had. Everyone says ‘if you need anything, if there’s anything I can help with, don’t be afraid to ask.’ To me, Averitt really does live up to the slogan of the Power of One – because everybody really does help. It’s not just everyone for themselves.”

LaShawn Clark

City Driver // 1-Year Team Member

“I’d see the trucks on the street and think ‘that’s some nice equipment.’ You see some of these other companies’ trucks on the road and think ‘man, that thing could’ve been in Smokey and the Bandit. Are you serious?’ But with Averitt, they’re always clean and modern.” And the uniform helped seal the deal. “That capped it off for me, you know? Just as a company… it looks professional. It presents a really good image.”

Audrea Brimah

Frontline Leader // 3-Year Team Member

“I actually feel bad for a lot of guys out there, you know? If you’re at the wrong company, you’re probably not going to get anywhere. So I tell them what a good company Averitt is to work for. For so many reasons… like not having to drive around looking for a place to sleep at night, because there’s always a service center near your delivery destination.”

Lu Tran

Shuttle Driver // 8-Year Team Member
