    Hey guys & gals,
    I'm looking to drive fuel/industrial gasses in the N Texas area. October will make 2 yrs experience driving fuel to frac sites in west Texas with one company the entire time. Clean record, Class A w/X&T endorsements. Most driving has been bobtails with pups and a bit of tractor/trailer thrown in. Looking in N Texas as I live in Dallas County. Only interested in top flight companies with excellent safety records, top shelf equipment with drivers held responsible for keeping trucks well maintained, inside & out. I've had enough of the slipshod equipment, filthy trucks, bandaid repairs and no pride drivers. I came out here to get tanker & fuel experience and am hoping 2 years will be enough for a decent company. I'm not looking to jump from one ragtag company to another. Not a job hopper, just came out here on a mission and seeing if good fuel/tanker companies are now interested in me. If your company, or one that you know of, would be interested, reply here or pm me. Thanks and good luck all.

    I just got approved for a fuel hauling outfit and i'm in the metroplex. From what I could find there is:

    Groendyke Transport-Blue Mound
    Texas TransEastern-Grand Prairie
    Coastal Transport-Dallas and Fort Worth
    Dillon Transport-George West
    PetroMax Transports - Unknown... found them on craigslist but can't find anything on them
    United Petroleum Transport, UPT-Euless
    Frontier Tank Lines-McKinney


    Most of these I found a single ad either on Craigslist or indeed.com. I haven't checked the safety scores on them all but I know these all haul fuel locally. I think all but Groendyke want at least a year experience, Coastal wants 2. Good luck bro.

    Trimac has a terminal in Grand Praire. They have a bunch of fuel tankers there. I just park there for home time so I don't know much about them but you should give them a call.
