On Friday, June 6, leaders from local Teamster unions that represent PTS carhaul members unanimously approved a strike against the company beginning at 9 a.m. (Eastern Daylight Time) Monday, June 9.

“We are striking to enforce our bargaining table positions on wages, hours and working conditions,” said Fred Zuckerman, Teamsters Carhaul Division Director and lead negotiator for the national carhaul contract.

About 1,250 Teamsters are employed at PTS, also known as Performance Transportation Services, and the company’s subsidiaries: Leaseway Motorcar Transport Company, E. and L. Transport Company, Hadley Auto Transport and Transportation Releasing.
