    Ok, I tried to find some expediter van/Sprinter jobs out of Denver and figured there is absolutely nothing available.

    I guess I gotta driver a tractor then.

    My question: What company would you recommend that hires out of Denver/CO if I -

    OFFER: 17 month/140.000 accident free miles in the lower 48's. Clean MVR. Can be out for weeks on end as I am single.
    WANT: To run mostly in the south or south/west. Dedicated would be cool. I10 back and forth would be cool ;)
    I'll be fine if I have to sit once in a while if I keep getting nice south routes.

    Thanks y'all!

    I would check out Western if I lived there. The big shiny KW's and Pete's.

    Furniture row express is in denver,nice trucks. Western distributring trans corp but they are very picky an u must have reefer exsp.-very nice equipment. High country transport in cortez co has hopper bottoms and nice trucks,that might be better for you as they run a lot of the 4 corners,midwest area.

    Western has BEAUTIFUL rigs, but according to their site, the require 3yrs/300K mi OTR w/reefer exp preferred. With that, you start at .30mi...:biggrin_2554:
    Looks like you get to subsidize their fancy trucks by working for cheap...

    This info is from their site: http://www.wdtc.net/employment.shtml

    If I'm OTR I rather make money than drive someone else's nice truck. If you don't mind flatbedding And have a clean record try Cast .38cpm on general freight and youll drive KW or Petes only. They trained me how to flatbed when I worked for them. Small fleet and Den is the home office.
     
    d.mann and Gearjammin' Penguin Thank this.

    I agree Radman. I don't care at all about the truck or it's look as long as it is safe and clean.
    I wouldn't mind flatbedding. Cast probably does not have anything dedicated tho I guess?

    They have regional but no dedicated except if they have a contract going on which they get alot. Alot of their dedicated is dept of energy stuff which you can do off the bat as long as you go get your Hazmat. Pay is more too if you do that stuff. Before I left I was doing alot of Ga to Vegas couple trips then back to Den stuff like that.
