    I really appreciate the recommendations. I'll put in some applications and see what happens. Some of these have definitely caught my eye. Thanks.

    RE Garrison - Cullman, AL
    Brannon Golden Trucking - Troy, AL
    Phat Daddy Trans - Webb, AL

    All 3 of those are reefer haulers and run across the Panhandle frequently enough to provide good home time.

    You're also in a good area for Groendyke (bought out McKenzie Tank Lines a couple of years ago)

    I'm not so sure if Climate Express is hiring out of Florida at the moment. We do have some drivers that live there and we run there sometimes but I don't know if they're standing pat with what they have. I will tell you, they'll want you to stay out a minimum 2 weeks before going home, but being in Florida, they may say you'll need to stay out longer because it's out of their typical running lanes. If you'd like, I'll PM you with more info.

    I didn't mention them this time due to the OP saying he wanted reefer (then I put a tank company there anyway. )

    As a general rule, I don't mention WSTL because I have several friends in various offices there. Wiley does advertise on local television but that's the only place I've ever seen them, with the exception of the few billboards around the Dothan area.

    About 6 weeks ago, WSTL needed 185 drivers to fill all of their trucks, per one of those friends.

    I would definitely try Kottke Transportation. They have a good hold on Florida and they have terminals there. They haul produce out of there like crazy.
