    Pretty soon here I'll have racked up 2 years of experience. The company I'm currently with pays decently but I won't be looking at any raises any time soon. We're paid by percent and it will never increase from here. So with experience I'm looking to make more money. I'm interested in line haul, ltl, regional, or any local positions in the Columbus, Oh region. Any suggestions from previous experience will help, thanks in advance. I also have all my endorsements FYI.

    I don't know what other companies are in Columbus or who the best are but I do know that Bulkmatic has a yard next to the Schneider yard on Williams rd. in Obetz. Most all the trucks I see are day cabs too. Unfortunately that's as far as I can help.

    See above, plus Dayton Freight. You might also try FST Logistics. They have both city and "regional" daycab work.

    What kind of money are you looking for? About how much do you typically gross per week now?
