Better Trucks Shift User Reviews

Horrible

Fix your damn app , this app freezes all the time while trying to deliver . What a joke

they are unorganized

you get assigned a shift but when you get there they say they have no routes….i say go early i. the morning to check for routes dont rely on this app. they need to do a better job at assigning routes and being consistent with accurate scheduling, you are wasting people time and gas driving all the way to a warehouse. gas is expensive in todays economy, this is also probably why alot of costumers complain about not getting their packages in time

Waste

What a waste of time they will approve you for a route, just for you to get to the warehouse and the routes isn’t available. Or never was

Last resort

This last mile company is very poor in organization and very inconsiderate. The routes are not efficient nor consistent. The hardest part is you can be assigned a route just for it to go away the day of, so there’s a good chance a persons time can be wasted on top of gas, which is very unprofessional as a company. Highly wouldn’t recommend.

Great company!

I have had the greatest experience working with Better Trucks DFW location! Super neat company,The staff is amazing, & the app is constantly updated & improving for a better, more effective& efficient experience on the road!

Decent side gig

I’ve worked for them almost a year and during the early stages, many of the commentary regarding organization were true. About six months ago they updated the app and route details. You can find out almost instantly a routes number of packages and payout. This information is provided the day of the route so you can cancel if it’s too big or if you don’t agree with the pay. Organization is key. You have to load packages accordingly so as you proceed in the route you can easily grab your package. If you don’t do this you can add hours to the delivery time. I have had a few cancelled shifts but they let you know two hours minimum prior. They also allow you to pick a zone, so you can deliver in areas of your preference. Packages are usually small but some routes do include larger boxes. A mid sized sedan or smaller suv is ideal. Dispatch is helpful and I normally don’t have any issue at the hub. You are required to return packages and aren’t compensated for this. This one of the only downsides. Typically, you just try and deliver your route. The only package you can’t leave are those that require signature, which are vape cartridges.

Scam of a company

Will waste your time to get your information, allow you to schedule a route. Then cancel it for no reason hours before the route starts. Claims they overbooked the route even though i was assigned this route multiple weeks ago. Don’t waste your time. Customers never get their packages

They do not pay

I did several routes for them. Then they stopped paying e. App issues cause errors when trying to deliver. They don’t provide enough app training.

FALSE PAY

This company is bogus. They offer a minimum $75 to deliver but paid me $49 for a 5 hour route. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME.
They don’t tell you up front what you’ll make, just a range. Then pay you under what they offer. They make it impossible to speak to somebody. This place is horrible !

The Worst

This is by far the worst courier job that I have ever had, employees are very unprofessional and little to no customer service experience. They will assign you a shift and cancel last minute if they even remember to cancel you just might drive 45 minutes or more only to arrive and they do not have a route for you but they don’t care so they will just tell you oh you will be priority tomorrow. Now let’s talk about this App that does not work most of the time it will have you going in circles b and add hours to your route if you don’t catch it and the people on the company will be watching you go in circles and they will not call or let you know in any way or compensate you any additional wages for the inconvenience. The only good thing about this company is that they pay the same day but that’s only if you get work.

WILL NOT ALLOW your bank

They ONLY USE ONE BANKING INSTITUTION: “Branch”

This FORCES us to USE THEIR BANK.

I am reporting this to the FTC.

Payment

You can't direct deposit to your own bank

What a joke

I’ve literally had 4 shifts canceled back to back to back. This knock off delivery company is a joke. Even customers complain about their service. That review trying to contradict what everyone else was saying but mentioning dispatcher names, just confirms that they only pick and choose who they WANT to work. So why hire more drivers on and approve shifts just to give them to the same people???? Don’t waste your time.

Waste of time

They frequently cancel shifts at the last minute. For example, if I express interest in a shift and get assigned to it, I naturally assume I’m scheduled to work. However, they cancel just an hour before the shift starts. When I call for an explanation, they simply say, “Oh, we assigned too many people, so we had to cancel some drivers.” It’s a complete waste of time! The schedule is highly inconsistent, and I never even got to complete a single route because they kept canceling shifts everyday. Then I have decided to delete this app completely. don’t waste your time on it!

Driver

Muchas rutas y tiempo para tan poco pago no vale la pena

Contrary to other reviews.

I strongly suggest that you have PRIOR delivery experience before signing up for this company. This is Independent Contractor work, so it is first come first serve, and NOT everyday will be an good day. Remember that! But overall the staff has been very supportive Big Shoutouts to Brooks & Angelica, great dispatchers 🙏🏽and they want to see people get an route they can handle. A MIDSIZE SUV or VAN would be ideal for this gig. Most of the people who I’ve seen complain don’t familiarize themselves with system map, and quiet frankly don’t use common sense. Don’t be one of those people! This company is growing in the right direction, you can be apart of the growth or you can go work at McDonald’s or something on the side. Pick your hard!

It used to be a good gig

I used to work 5 days a week every week. Then outta nowhere they started assigning people times in the morning when you can pick up your routes but everybody knows if you don’t get there at least an hour before hand you won’t get a route. It used to be first come first serve. Now they favor certain drivers and allow them to start before everyone else every single day during the week. Good luck speaking to a manager and if you do they won’t help you. So glad I quit last month.

Inconsistent Scheduling

I tried working at this Company located in Hillside Illinois. The first 2 Saturdays I was scheduled no problems. The last 2 Saturdays were not so good. The 3rd Saturday I was scheduled the day before and on the day of I was about to leave to go to the hub at 630am and I received a message in the app saying route was cancelled. I called dispatch and spoke to Ebony and she said they had assigned too many drivers and had to cancel my route. This also happened on the 4th Saturday as well for the same reason. This is ridiculous if you know you have way too many drivers why wait till the morning of to cancel the routes do it sooner than that. Don’t waste your time or energy with this company so disorganized and unprofessional staff working there. Plus if you have to return a package they don’t give good compensation for the return trip back to the hub. Just a bad overall experience.
