Testimonials

Hear it from our drivers

“I’ve been driving for VGN for 1 year and 4 months, and what keeps me here is that the numbers are exactly what they told me up front. I get paid every Monday, I fuel where I want, and when my truck went into the shop I didn’t pay a truck note that week. Dispatch picks up after hours, tires are handled in the yard, and I can call the office and talk to a real person. If you want to run your own truck without doing it alone, this is the place.”
Benjamin, VGN Trucking driver Benjamin VGN driver · 1 year, 4 months
“I’ve been here for almost 8 months — nothing bad to say so far. From day one, my recruiter Ray promised me consistency and good equipment, and he has kept his word so far. Another thing I like is that I can always get home on time.”
Larry, VGN Trucking driver Larry VGN driver · 8 months
“I’ve been with VGN for over 4 years, and that says it all. Pay hits every Monday, and it always has. When something breaks down on the road, they take care of it: the truck gets fixed, I’m not paying the truck note while it’s in the shop, and if I’m stuck they cover the hotel. A company that’s been running since 2005 knows how to treat drivers. I’m not going anywhere.”
Felipe, VGN Trucking driver Felipe VGN driver · 4+ years
“This company actually treats drivers right. They know my name and my preferences, and they never turn me down when I need something. Communication with operations and dispatch has always been good.”
Michael, VGN Trucking driver Michael VGN driver · 3 years, 4 months
