Company Name: C01 Trucking LLC

Location: Michigan, USA

Owner: Zamir Karaoglan

Introduction

If you are a truck driver in the United States, chances are you've heard stories of carriers who don’t pay their drivers fairly. Unfortunately, my experience with C01 Trucking LLC—a company based in Michigan—has been the worst example of this.

This blog post serves as a public warning to fellow drivers and logistics professionals. Based on personal experiences and conversations with several former drivers, C01 Trucking LLC has been reported to withhold tens of thousands of dollars in unpaid wages.

What Happened?

Over the course of several months, multiple drivers claim that they worked full time for C01 Trucking LLC, only to be left unpaid after they left the company. According to these drivers:

Final settlements were never sent.
Escrow payments were withheld without explanation.
Calls and messages to the company and its owner, Zamir Karaoglan, were ignored.
Promised reimbursements never arrived.

These claims are not isolated. Many drivers have shared screenshots, invoices, and legal filings that support these accusations.

Why This Matters

Truck drivers form the backbone of the U.S. economy. We spend weeks away from our families, manage tight schedules, and risk our safety every day. When a company exploits its drivers financially, it should not go unnoticed.

Call to Action

If you are considering working with C01 Trucking LLC, I strongly encourage you to:

Research deeply before signing any contracts
Request written guarantees of payment schedules and escrow terms
Speak to former drivers and ask about their experiences
Document everything you’re promised in writing
