    I went through XPO dock to driver program almost a year ago and have been on linehaul since, what I wanted. I've come to realize I think I hate LTL haha. I'm looking for an out and back, local, or regional company to go to once I have my experience and my contract is up (1 more year).
    I have all my endorsements except I'm manual restricted, totally willing to get it (did my training in a manual but tested in an auto)
    I'm around Omaha area.


    I should add the reason I don't like LTL is I don't won't to work the dock, I just want to drive mostly haha(Van, Load unload hopper or tank, or strap and tarp flatbed is easy enough, i just hate working the dock)

    You are correct some LTL require dock work on line haul bids/work. Some don’t. R&L is one that linehaul strictly drives. No dock at all

    Hills brothers is out of Omaha. I work for FedEx Freight in Des Moines. They pull loads for us, contact them they would probably have something for you. They also sent me a email this week about hauling loads for Tyson that was regional.
