Due to me being in school during recruiters working hours it's hard for me to call and ask questions... So here I go. I only got one week of school left and I've decided to go flatbed. TMCs website says 23 and McElroy says 24.... These are my top choices for my first company and the problem is I'm only 22... My question is.. Do these companies ever make exceptions? Or is it pretty much set in stone insurance policy? Thanks for taking the time to look.

I'm 21 just got out of school in September. My school director knows one of the head guys at tmc so my director call then guy and said that they are not hiring younger guys right. McElroy wouldn't take my app. So I'm at maverick Transportation right now and love it.
trashtruckin22 and SHC Thank this. -
Contact some other flatbed outfits & maybe take a job there & move on to TMC or McElroy after meeting age requirements. Do google searches, Careerbuilder, etc. and contact flatbed companies. Send in online apps and see what happens, since you can't call recruiters during the day. Those age requirements are pretty much set and are there for specific reasons.

If it a mega carrier they will not bend rules. I've asked and try. All has to do with insurance...
SHC and trashtruckin22 Thank this. -
Find a small company near home and see if you can get in that way....
