Things needed to do for changing companies?

I am currently leased onto a company, and I am going to transfer to another one. What are the things I need to do as in calling my bobtail/deadhead insurance company and letting them know and what else?

Yes you will need to notify your state if the company name appears on your cab card as it does in my state. As for two weeks notice, I agree that it is the best courtesy, but I have seen very few that would let an o/o work out that much notice. You better have a VERY good relationship with them!

Are you kiding? so what's your deal anyways. significate other....16yo...? what is it really because you have some off the wall ideas.

In the real world if you give two weeks that just gives them 2 weeks to cheat you out of something. Usually once a company fins out you are leaving they will just cut you loose. I don't think I ever left a company without them keeping some monies they shouldn't have
