If you want dedicated, Swift has a dedicated account with the Walmart DC in Corrine, just North of SLC. You might want to check into it. Dedicated account drivers at Swift tend to get paid a higher rate. I have a friend with 2 years experience who just started driving for Swift on a different dedicated account and he's getting 60 cpm. Working dedicated out of Corrine will probably keep you in the general area where you'd get to be home most nights.

Seriously though, I'll check them out.

Dockbumper and PhoenixTJ Thank this.

My only 'condition' is that I don't want to go to the Southeast. So, to accommodate that, they keep me in the West. Farthest East I generally go is Denver. My heart is in the Western US. Just so much beauty and majestic scenery to traipse through. But, a few load planners who know me will sometimes give me a load back East, but distinctly North of the Mason-Dixon line. Usually places in Wisconsin or Minnesota. -

I've narrowed it down to Pride Transport and KKW Trucking. Both offer refresher training and western regional routes. I was leaning strongly toward KKW until a recruiter told me I would have to be out with a trainer for 2-3 weeks. Pride is only going to require 50 hours with a trainer for the refresher, and I can do orientation locally (instead of flying to CA), so it's looking like I'll go with them instead.
Dockbumper Thanks this. -
Pride wasn't bad back when I was there but that was over a decade ago. Pretty sure they have dedicated stuff still. They have a local fleet too which might work out for you.
