    Hello everyone!

    I am looking for pneumatic work in California. Perferrabbly anywhere in the Bay Area, central valley (Stockton, Tracy, etc.)
    I will be pulling a 2012 Heil Pneumatic trailer, 1040 cubic foot, 3 pods, and top air. I've seen a lot of these type of trailers in the Bakersfield area. A company called GAF and majority of them are leased Penske trucks. Heck some of them have a small piece of paper taped on but most of them don't.

    I know in the Stockton area I've seen some 1040 CF's pulling cement but most of the time they have the doubles doing it out here in California.

    Anyone know anything about what companies pulling these 4 POD pneumatic trailers that go to the refineries that have a vacuum on the back?

    GAF is the company that produces asphalt roofing shingles, it's located on 99 just a few miles south of the 46. Royal Trucking of Concord, CA runs pneumatics and I know that they haul coke out of some of the refineries with bottom dumps.

    Try Reliable trucking instead of Royal trucking. Grainte Rock is also a good try because their looking for pullers and sub haulers right now I've heard.

    I hauled GAF when I drove flatbed, annoying company to work with.

    Granite Rock is everywhere so they should be easy to work with. I don't know what Royal hauls in their tanks. What i do know n have seen is atleast five six of Royals pneumatic guys drop the tanks n start pulling double bottoms instead. They all say the samething, tired of the long hours and cheap pay, better off pulling the bottoms.
