Where do I start?

Look on Craigs List ND plenty of work up there as well as TX and AK some are even offering housing.

 

:smt102Why arent you up there ??

 

Working in ND,you work long hard hrs and some ppl love it.Heard they'll pay or help pay for your relocation.As you know there's no money in the average trucking.ND is one of the few states that does'nt have a high unemployment rate.

 

I would do the research on the company before moving. But I have used Craigs List a few times for work and have been happy.

 

Start callin them..............what are you waitin on Christmas.......

 

Isn't ND the one that is wanting to change it's state motto to "Best Fracking State in the Union?"...

... each fracking well needs 2000-5000 truck loads. Lot's of need and off paved road driving = high pay.

 

the housing situation is getting better, as in you can actually find a hotel room now. It's still expensive though. Craigslist is a crap shoot, but it's the fastest way to find work. If you're up here and living in your car while looking for work, craigslist is probably the best way to go about it. Housing generally consists of living in the truck or sharing a trailer with three guys, though.

The big companies that offer good housing will take a few weeks to process your app and do interviews, but they'll usually hire you over the phone so you don't actually have to be up here to land a job. If you're patient and willing to submit lots of applications and follow-up phone calls, you'll probably have better luck at finding a job you're willing to hang on to.

 

There have been a few guys post here that they went to Williston and walked into a bar or a gas station and had several job offers in 30 minutes. The only reason i haven't gone up there is the weather and the living situation.

So I am going to TX. A little less money but you still have a life besides work.

Good luck and keep us posted on what you do.
