    Call and ask about your application. Tell them you submitted the application and want to know the status of it.

    Most of the good companies are looking for the drivers that show initiative and call to follow up on an application. They know any lazy person can fill out an auto fill app so it takes just minutes to fill there app out. It's the drivers that are willing to take the extra steps and call, follow up and talk to a kind person that they want, not the driver that just sits and waits for a call, letter, email, sign from above or below. I would be worried about the companies that are so eager to hire a warm body that they are calling you within minutes of you submitting an app.

    Start making the calls! Luck is going to the opportunity, not waiting for it to come to you!
     
    Chinatown Thanks this.

    I don't know about Freymiller, but most companies let you take the truck home if you have a safe place to park.

    KY what companies do you most commonly see when you run local. Approach those guys. Ask them where their dispatch is located.
