Looking for truck companies in Canada
Me and my husband are currently work in the UK as HGV1 drivers.We are coming out to Canada late september for interviews and to also have a good look around. We currently have contact with H&R in Lethbridge, Bison in Winnipeg and Yanke in Saskatoon. Seeing as we will be in these areas can anyone recommend any other good companies we can contact? We want to work as a team doing the long haul stuff. Thanks to anyone who can help us! LISA & GLEN.

As our time in Winnipeg is limited is there any of those companies you would recommend that specialize in team driving long haul?
Just looked at your profile....Cannot believe we've just bumped into another Pompey Fan!! Small world eh! Did you get to watch the Man U game?

Team driving -- I don't know but do know I once saw a profile on a husband and wife team that drove for Bison. There are lots of adverts on the side of the road I'll try to remember to look out for the team ones.

Not a bad company to work for, friend did 2 years for them until he got landed status. Pay is a bit naff as they did'nt keep him busy enough to earn the big bucks. He Worked out of Edmonton.

Truckers wife
How is your husbad getting on with Trucking companies? I am looking myself, was a bit disappointed yesterday as Yanke said I didnt have enough experience, but that was my fault for not explaining my background correctly! They have since asked me to apply.
