Company Overview
Melton Truck Lines is a Tulsa, Oklahoma flatbed carrier, one of the larger flatbed fleets in the country, hauling building materials, steel, machinery and other open-deck freight across the United States and into Canada and Mexico. The FMCSA lists Melton Truck Lines Inc with 1,395 power units and 1,223 drivers on its May 2026 filing. Flatbed pays more than van work and involves tarping and securing loads, and Melton trains drivers who have never done it. The roadside record: 2,752 inspections, 20 driver out-of-service orders, about 0.7 percent, and 345 vehicle orders, about 12.5 percent, both under the national averages. There are 121 recordable crashes over two years. Melton is on this list from driver reports. It hires experienced flatbed drivers and also van drivers willing to learn flatbed, and it has a reputation among drivers for taking a genuine look at people rather than filtering on a form. Ask the recruiter whether they currently hire drivers who have completed the SAP program and passed the return-to-duty test, what their rule is on time since the violation, and whether the flatbed training program is open to a returning driver. Melton has historically used a hair follicle test alongside the DOT panel; confirm that before you apply so there are no surprises at orientation.
SAP Friendly — Driver-reported
Melton Truck Lines is on this list because drivers have been hired here after a Clearinghouse violation. Hiring policy moves with the freight and insurance markets, so confirm with the recruiter when you call.
