Company Terminal Locations
Eight regional dispatch centers coordinate commercial-asset recovery and transportation. The facilities support local inventory management, driver assignments, equipment pickup, and document processing. Their distribution provides nationwide coverage for manufacturer and financial-institution requirements.
Company Orientation
Orientation takes one business day in Oklahoma City. Applicants must complete a Department of Transportation drug screen and a CDL road test and provide a valid medical examiner certificate, verified background check, and 10-year work history. The company does not charge an upfront orientation fee for processing a new driver application. A required damage deposit is collected through settlement deductions over several pay cycles. All prospective contractors must satisfy the company’s safety requirements before receiving an assignment.

- Specialized Division: Personnel recover and transport trucks and heavy equipment for financial institutions. Supporting services include secure storage and technical inspections for recovered commercial assets.
- Digital Dispatching: Technology systems coordinate assignments and monitor driver availability. Contractors use the BidMyTrucks portal to identify shipping opportunities throughout North America.
