The Middleton & Meads Company has a long and respected history in the transportation industry. The company roots date back to the latter part of the 19th century as the White-Middleton Gas Engine Company. White-Middleton was a manufacturer of internal combustion engines in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, headquartered in Baltimore MD.
The engines the company manufactured could be powered either by natural gas or by gasoline. They were employed for such varied uses as powering riverboats, generating electricity for local power grids, grinding coffee for both industrial coffee processors and coffee shops, and driving submarines. Today these engines can be seen at the Baltimore Museum of Industry, as well as at the Biltmore House in Asheville, NC.

Our 5th wheel lost a tire (literally) on interstate about 3 miles from this shop. The wheel and drum came off the spindle. They were great to get us right in for repair. Ron Middleton was very accommodating and took a personal interest to get us fixed up and on our way. Parts and a new tire had to be ordered and were received next day. The technician, Earl had 30+ years experience and was super. He explained our issues and repairs required in a very professional and courteous manner.

If you are reading this, then run to nearest bus going anywhere away from this place. This company does not believe in any kind of safety. When you show up for work you work in some of the most un safest work location on the east coast, weather your test driving vehicles that have been worked on or repairing the vehicles that come in. You will be working in a unsafe place. Then there is the pay if you accept the offer of $20.00 per hour that is what you will be making in a year , two years and five years. When you ask for a raise there is always an excuse for why he can not give you a raise, but

My insurance company called Blaze Towing to come tow my vehicle. At 6:50am, I was told it would about a 90 minute wait. I waited 3 and a half hours, still no tow. Tried calling them several times, no answer. Eventually called my Roadside Assistance back and was told that Blaze cancelled my service. Now, I have to wait all over again for another company. Unprofessional and absolutely terrible service.

Careful with this guys!! Too expensive and seem shady. Took my semi for an inspection because lady on the phone told me over the phone it'll be $330.. ended up billing me for $440 coz it's a tandem.. out of courtesy I think they should have told me that once I brought in the truck before starting on the job, but anyway not such a big deal.
Finished the inspection and one of their guys called David emails me that I failed inspection and need $1160 to get my brakes fixed! Guy said I'm missing a spring on my chambers and that my brakes need major work! (Mind you I bought this truck from International

I went in for my rear axle gasket to be replace, even though I told them what was wrong with the truck they still charge me a diagnostic fee.
Also it was supposed to be a 2-3 day work my trucj ended up being in there for almost 2 weeks just to replace the gasket.
I called them every day after the third day of my truck being in the shop and they kept lying and telling me it will be done the next day!!
After my truck was done they charge me over $ 800.00 and i ask for bill adjustment since it took way longer then expected and manager (DAVE) refused to do anything and kep giving me excuses about

Went in for an engine inspection, was charged $100 for a chassis inspection. Received a list of flaws. no explanation was offered, no estimate for repairs. The employee who was sent to answer my questions was mocking, condescending and patronizing. Is it because I am a female? Perhaps this place is only good for male run corporations. Feel like I just paid $100 to get laughed at.

Left our truck untouched throughout the day and forgot to follow instructions to leave the keys at the end of the day. It was a Friday with a busy weekend ahead for the truck. We didn't service our customer and lost $10,000.00 in revenue over the weekend.. Previous work was expensive with issues outstanding. You be the judge! We will look for another service provider.
