Did you, as a child, play with
miniature car haulers? Did you load your Matchbox cars onto
the back of a multi-car truck that could transport your
precious toys from the kitchen to the living room? Did you
know you could do similar work as an adult?
Playing around with life-sized automobiles…sometimes
transporting the finest cars in the business?
JMN Logistics Auto transport specialists are in the business of
hauling cars to chosen
Destinations. Their “freight” can be high-end automobiles on
their way
To an exclusive auto show. They can
Be auctioned cars needing to move from a dock to a
dealership.

JMN Logistics it’s a

Different beast from hauling freight –and that’s one of the
reasons so many drivers are looking to move into the auto-
transport industry.

How Gear Heads get their
“Car fix” and earn big
Bucks at the same time.

JMN Logistics “Car-hauling is a specialized field, so finding
experienced car-haulers or car-transport specialists can be
difficult at times,” says Cindy Darnell Chief Operating Officer
at JMN Logistics
JMN Logistics A national leader in the automotive transport
industry.
“But there are a lot more jobs than there are drivers.”
The Day-to-Day Routine There is similarities between your
basic freight hauling and car

Hauling. Drivers still have to drive, after all. That much doesn’t
change. But it’s what you are hauling from point to point that
makes all of the
Difference. Because the “freight” is so valuable
At JMN Logistics You are transporting someone’s automobile,
something they hold dear the emphasis Darnell places on
experience cannot be stressed enough.
It’s echoed by Bob Sellers, general manager for Reliable
Carriers, a Canton, Michigan-based company
(Which has offices in Arizona, Florida and California, as well).
“This is not a job you can take on right out of tractor-trailer
training school,” Sellers said, explaining that
Reliable demands at least five years of
Driving experience before they’ll even consider you for an
open position. “We’re hauling million-dollar
Automobiles every day, and you have no idea which driver is
going to get which car. You may get a 1985 Taurus
Today, but you could get the $5 million Bugatti tomorrow. You
have to have a skill set that is more than just driving.” Or, as
Darnell eloquently puts it,

JMN Logistics “You can’t back up to the dock with a coffee cup
in one hand and the steering wheel in the other.”
Car-carrier companies claim they look for customer service
agents who happen to be driving a truck.
They often recruit from the household goods industry, or the
special-products
Field. And they are looking out for happy,
Healthy drivers.

“It’s a more physical job than driving from Point A to Point B
like a freight or box-truck driver would do. It’s
Definitely more physical, and there’s a lot more to it than your
freight,” Darnell said.

The physicality of the work, however, doesn’t mean that
younger drivers automatically get more opportunities in this
niche of the industry. “We’ve got some drivers who have been

in the field for 20-plus years who could probably run circles
around somebody who is 22 years old.

Because of their experience, they know all of the little
shortcuts, and how to get the job done.”
Car-hauling often means finding the car you’ve been asked to
transport on a car-dealership or auto-auction lot that can run
miles in multiple directions.

“Needless to say, these guys are getting their mileage on their
shoes, as well,” explains Darnell.
And once the automobile has been located, they have to
figure out
Which slot will hold the car, strap the automobile down and
prepare it for transport.
“It could be raining, snowing,

Sleeting,” Darnell continues. “It could be 110 degrees outside.
The weather definitely is a major contributor to how long or
how short their day is
Going to be.”
