Melton Truck Lines Adds New Programs to Contractor Services
Tulsa, OK-Melton Truck Lines, Inc. announces new programs to further promote the success of its Owner Operators and Lease Contractors. In addition to its top-ranked lease program, Melton Truck Lines is expanding services available to contractors. Currently, Melton has a dedicated Contractor Services Department with staff members trained on the specific needs of contractors. Lisa Mason, Contractor Services Manager; Shelley Seals, Contractor Services Supervisor; and Becky Dale, Contractor Services Administrator are all trained to assist contractors with all aspects of owning there own business—and succeeding. Melton Truck Lines also has a specific contractor maintenance contact, Bobby Phillips, Contractor Maintenance Supervisor, works to ensure contractors run efficiently and are able to find the best repair solutions while on the road.
At Melton opportunity is the number one reason to join the contractor program. We offer 90 cpm plus $40 tarp pay, unlimited fuel adjustments, paid tolls, scales, licenses, and permits, and a liberal rider program. Melton also offers excellent detention pay and borough pay just to name of few of the incentives.
Changing jobs or moving from a company position to a lease position can sometimes be a financial hit, but to help get our new contractors started on the road to success, Melton offers a two-week deduction deferral program. This allows contractors to earn some base pay and save some money before any deductions or truck payments are made. Melton also provides weekly Business Management Class geared just for the independent contractor. Lisa Mason says, “The Business Management Classes have really been able to teach contractors what it takes to succeed—from day-to-day accounting and record keeping to investing and insurance. We have seen a dramatic increase in our contractors’ productivity and paychecks since the programs inception.”
Other benefits of Melton Truck Lines Contractor Services is the Melton Mentor Program, which gives all drivers a mentor to help with professional and personal issues while on the road. Fleet Managers are also trained to assist contractors with their needs and work as their support staff.
