    Which town are you in or near in Central Illinois?
    `
    Do you have endorsements on your CDL?
    `
    Is that what you want, flatbed?
    Anything local?

    Oh yeah, if I lived in Illinois and wanted regional, Hoekstra looks more my flavor. We have a decent amount of Illinois freight and they got drop and hooks all over. I'll bet OP could do well there.
     
    Chinatown Thanks this.

    So I'd like Dayton Freight or Central Transport. But provided LTL may take a few months to get into I'm willing to go regional until then. I'm willing to drive flatbed or dryvan.

    If you live in IL, where exactly? That makes a huge difference as to where we can recommend looking.
     
    Chinatown Thanks this.

    How much experience do you have endorsements?
    Which town are you near?
