Simply cannot say enough about how well treated here as a driver. Orientation in Ethridge,Tn. was outstanding with Safety personnel Sam Barnes, being very thorough from using equipment, safety expertise and regulations to receiving a very nice truck. Made sure I had a good lunch and I had everything I needed to do my job ,As week progressed I found great miles, nice dispatcher, and respectful personell throughout the company , all very helpful with anything I’ve needed. Its been a hard road last few yrs with last few companies with their overall driver abuse, low miles and pay, I was actually ready to give it up til I found Christenson transportation.I truly hope I can finally rest at ease with this company. They’re strict on safety regulations, and maintaining their equipment.. having an “Iron fist in a velvet glove” feel and position. I’m happy to drive for a company who takes such pride in their safety and equipment and making sure drivers really are taken care of.

In 2018 I worked for Christenson Transportation for over a year.During that time I worked as a lease owner operator.The problem with Christiansen transportation is that they pay their regional drivers double what they pay The OTR Drivers.I heard this directly from my sources in dispatch and Lonnie did not deny it.This was a big problem for me just ask any OTR driver if they don't work just as hard as any Regional Driver.That particular year I drove approximately 170,000 mi as a single OTR driver.When I decided to separate from the company the following year and did it by the book leaving a months notice in writing Lonnie tried to reprimand me for it.And mainly because I did it over the messaging system we had link to our driver logs.Anyone who had access to our dispatch system could see that I was leaving the company.This upset him so bad they did not dispatch me for 2 days.When I had hours to drive to the house and reset my hours.So when a company tells you that it's okay to drive by the house and they don't penalize you for driving out of route this is not true withChristenson Transportation.They reported that I was driving out of route and always late.This was definitely not true and any driver will tell you accidents in LA or New York will definitely delay you beyond your control.Christensen will report you late due to an accident in the LA California area.Because this happened to me.And reported me late on my pick up and delivery.You would think we were running expedited loads as a team I was not I was a single driver.I know how important certain loads are because I worked for Watkins Motor Lines for over 14 years.(And I have worked in the transportation industry for over 40 years).Who sold out to FedEx.Now what is reported on my DAC report is not Christensen Transportation it's Progressive.According to their new manager at Christenson Transportation in which I'm assuming Lonnie is no longer there.(Not Sure)The new manager says that they are not going to take that off my DAC Report and it has been there for over 4 years.Speaking from experience this is not a reputable company.Even though you work extremely hard for them they will keep any deposits you make and "I made a $6,500.00 deposit"....And I left that truck extremely Clean change the oil every 10,000 miles.Very well maintained.When I separated from Christensen I left a five-star rating on Google and Indeed!Talk about being stabbed in the back!They will try their hardest to make sure you get denied from any future position.Do yourself a favor and find another company to Drive or work for!

If you're a driver that likes to longhaul, this place is special. I've driven 4 million miles in my career and am very happy I came here almost a year ago. Great support, excellent miles. Get me home every time on time. You'll find a home here. Excellent equipment. Folks who understand what driving is.

Loved working for Christensen until I decided to do lease purchase then I would not get enough miles to make the truck payment and was in the hole every week so I talked to Berry and his response was well that is one of the bumps of being an o/o so I decided to move on,again great family to work,Cheryl,misty,and terry were the best and I've talked to l/p drivers that were making a ton of money,just wasn't me,?

You are nothing more than a glorified company driver with this company and they will tell you that to your face.

This is Kyle I’m using my wife’s account. I called the recruiter for questions on lease purchase program few times. I haven’t heard from them so I called again. They said they asked why I’m using the interpreter for communication thur the phone. They rolled the eyes, they said they are busying whatever they don’t want to deal with interpreting. This is abusing Disabled human

Great place to work they treat their driver's like family and are very diligent about making sure a driver's personal needs are adequately met. Great equipment with all the creature comforts a driver is looking for. Consistent miles and pay.
