Whether it's for a Concours event, auto auction transport, antique auto transport, classic car transport, a relocation, corporate event, or shipping the car of your dreams from one location to another Reliable Carriers, Inc. provides fully enclosed, door-to-door auto transport. We have air-ride equipped transporters—with $5 million worth of insurance on every single load. But why drive for Reliable Carriers? "I think our mileage pay is superior to what drivers are going to find in the marketplace," Sellers said, emphasizing that the company requires five years of experience in its recruits. "Our drivers get paid for every mile that they run, empty or loaded," Sellers continued. "And we're providing everybody with practically a brand new tractor. If it's not brand new, it's about a year old. We're running the best equipment that money can buy." "At 40% and growing, our successful owner operator fleet enjoys one of the best compensation packages in the industry with plenty of year round business. At Reliable we treat our independent contractors like the valuable business partners they are". JFT_Full&Spread_Template.indd 1 "We're buying more trucks, we're buying more trailers, and we want to hire more drivers," says Bob Sellers, general manager for the Canton, Michigan-based company (which has offices in Arizona, Florida and California, as well). At the same time, Sellers says that because of the required customer interaction, the company looks for drivers with unique people skills in addition to being good drivers. Sellers says that it was a gradual increase in sales and business planning that led to Reliable Carriers' growth. "We've continued to obtain more business, new business," Sellers said. "We have contracts with General Motors, Ford, Chrysler; every major manufacturer. But, all of the manufacturers have just become busier. The automakers are doing well. We're moving a lot more Snow Birds now. We're moving a lot more personally owned vehicles now. Our business is just growing exponentially. Good things are happening on a regular basis." Sellers emphasized a need for team drivers at the company.
