    I believe Miller transporters are in the Houston area as well as Mils Logistics. Miler runs O/O and CO drivers but not sure about the local work. Mils may have some but I think they are more a regional/OTR company. Cant hurt to call.

    Max, How come you're leaving Schneider Bulk? I Drive for Schneider, out of Salt Lake City. I was going to move down to Houston to switch to the Bulk side, but there seems to be an exodus from down there. There is a bejeezus load of Tanker companies down there(and NExt door neighbor, Louisiana)

    They are Pogo but they would rather sell you one of theirs and the pmts are stiff. Their L/P deal is setup to force you to roll hard. That's per a Miller driver I spoke to while loading at Exxon....but he was happy so to each his own.

    I've heard that iias well. Some guys like it because they can get their truck paid for quickly. Mils is the logistics side of Miller, might want to give them a call only company drivers.

    scythe08,its a lot of sh.t at our local terminal,i believe its anywhere like that ,but al least in some other companies I m gonna be paid for that(hope I will))for example,today I came at 0700 in the morning to hook up empty and go to get loaded,but that trailer that I was supposed to take was loaded by product..dispatch gave me another one,i checked it,its dirty...not washed bad,but wasn't washed at all...3 hours waste of time on that,no money for that...
     
    scythe08 Thanks this.
