Driver Testimonials

Omar Seck — Since 2007
I’m proud to say I completed my 2nd lease in December 2010. It has been a very rewarding and profitable experience for me with the Wil-Trans family. I have a great working relationship with my fleet manager, Jeff Thomas. He is always willing to help me any way possible. Everyone at Wil-Trans always goes above and beyond to try and meet my needs.

I am pleased to say at the completion of my lease, Darrel Wilson has given me a great opportunity to own a truck. I am very proud and appreciative of the people I do business with on a daily basis. I would highly recommend Wil-Trans to any driver that wants to find a place where he is known by name rather than by a number.

Wil-Trans is a great company to work for. This company is family owned with a real open door policy. The office staff is easy to contact and they are dedicated to their drivers. Wil-Trans offers good pay, good home time, good people and good miles.


Wallda “Bud” Lewis — Since 2009
Due to a changing economy and work force, I decided to explore the trucking industry as a possible new career. After obtaining my CDL and searching through many companies, an opportunity presented itself with Wil-Trans. Being new to the industry, I am glad to have received the extensive training before becoming a company driver. Wil-Trans is a family owned and operated business, so I have truly felt like a part of the team. I now enjoy giving back what was given to me as a trainer, ensuring the integrity of the company. Thanks Wil-Trans, for the opportunity you have afforded me and I look forward to continuing to grow as a team.


Dave Broder — Since 2009
I started with Wil-Trans with mixed feelings on what I was getting into. Upon my arrival for training, everyone really put me at ease with how friendly and professional they are. The training process was very thorough and efficient, which gave me the confidence I needed to handle these rigs.

After completing orientation and going on the road with a trainer, Wil-Trans made sure I was compatible with my trainer so there would be no distractions in my learning process. All the bad things I heard from other companies never happened here. My trainer was a first-class person and a great trainer. The staff of dispatchers here are truly a great bunch of people that do care about you, and you’re not just a number with them. They are very respectful when you need to have your home time and they keep you moving, not sitting, waiting on loads.

The safety department makes sure that logs and permits are taken care of. They just stay on top of everything and the service department really makes sure that your truck is well maintained and that you feel comfortable with everything. The owner, Mr. Wilson is a quiet but efficient boss, and he will do whatever it takes for drivers to be safe. I was fortunate enough to be able to lease straight out of training because the instructor and Mr. Wilson felt I was ready for it. Since day one, I’ve made extremely good money and I’ve never looked back. If you want a quality training process and a quality settlement each week, Wil-Trans is by far, a company that I recommend for you.


Curtis Haines — Since 2009
In my driving career I have always been a company driver. Things changed drastically, (for the good) when I started with Wil-Trans. Wil-Trans gave me the opportunity to lease my own truck and I didn’t think twice about it. Everyone at Wil-Trans is very helpful and professional. I see myself being here a while. They are a very family oriented company.


Mike Parker — Since 2008
I've been a driver here at Wil-Trans for over three years. I started out as a student trainee, brand new to the industry, and have worked my way up to become a successful company driver and student trainer. Wil-Trans has been there for me every step of the way. They provided me with quality training and a knowledgeable training staff to get me started, and have continued to make sure that my career choice is a profitable and fulfilling endeavor.

Reliable equipment, a superb freight network, and a great fleet manager have allowed me financial freedom that was unimaginable at my prior job. Not only that, but I've been able to see nearly every part of our great country, and get paid while doing so!

I've never regretted my choice to become a trucker, nor my decision to choose Wil-Trans. I have been able to provide for my family, and have fun doing so, all within the supportive, family-like, environment that is Wil-Trans. Hope to see you on the road!

Being a female trucker in a predominantly male industry presents its own unique set of circumstances. Over the years, more and more women are enjoying life on the road and the industry is still catching up. I stopped driving back in 1992 and there were very few truckstops equipped for the needs of female drivers.

I was away from trucking for over 14 years and I thought I needed to go back to truck driving school to feel comfortable behind the wheel again. I was pleasantly surprised when a trainer at a local driving school told me that with my previous experience and safety record that I really didn’t need school. I really needed Wil-Trans. I am so glad. Wil-Trans welcomed me back into the industry with a refresher course and put me with a female trainer that really encouraged me. If truth be told, she helped me find a comfort-level behind the wheel that I thought I had lost years ago. 6 months later, I am teaching another female to drive a truck safely.

I have plenty of drop and hook freight to haul and great opportunities are available for me when I am ready. Wil-Trans is small enough to know who you really are and they take care of the employees. Finding Wil-Trans and hauling 70% drop and hook freight after being a low-boy operator for 17 years is like being on a ‘Perpetual Vacation’. I love this fleet.
