    Been with Estes for almost 2 years. P&d is taking a toll on my body. Ready for a no touch freight local position. If I'm not able to get a linehaul run here. What other companies are out there that will give me local no touch besides ltl? I'm in the Dallas-Fort worth area. If anyone knows any other companies out there please message me.. I would really like to keep my day shift if possible and would be willing to take a pay cut. I used to enjoy my job now I hate it. Please help lol

    How about delivering fuel?

    The only thing you’ll have to touch are the hoses.

    Tell your boss/supervisor you’re either going to need a no touch line haul gig or you gotta go.

    first thought through my head. Only additional credential he may have to get is a TWIC card depending on where he’d load out of.

    P&D is taking a toll on your body? Sure its a little rough sometimes, but its work...linehaul will take a much worse toll on your body in the long run...lol

    Yes rolling 3-400lb pallets up a ramp is not fun as a woman. Delivering 1500 lb pallets of bricks to a residential isn't either. Im over it maybe its time to leave trucking.
