Is it possible to get a local job

Estes has been hiring in York.

 

China Town,
Possibly thinking of doing teams with my dather. He's been driving for 20 years.
I just got out of school.
Is there a good company you would recommend? Good pay?

 

Look for fleet fueling companies in your area. I snagged a job doing that right out of school making 23/hr 50+ hours a week. Home daily.

 

OP, you might wanna check out JP Donmoyer/ FT silfies. They haul dry bulk cement, have a terminal in York, PA and Keymar, Md, although I do think they want 6 month experience. But as desperate as they are for drivers, they may be able to do something for you.

I did. I wasn’t interested in driving long distance even in my car and don’t love trucks (beyond the thrill of the air horn) - but in being home for my son every day, the pay and the benefits.

I lost my patience a few weeks after getting my CDL and went with one of the many bigger carrier offers. I had a Hail Mary save while on my 2nd day of a mega orientation, which was my last resort - a call from a tiny local company I applied with weeks before (flatbed coil work). The mega graciously paid my way home.

I started out knowing nothing - NOTHING!!!! I was still double clutching and couldn’t straight line back with the guys laughing at me and placing bets on when I’d quit. Bottom feeder pay, brutal hours. A mere 6 months later I’m making more than any of the guys and call the dispatcher to tell him I’m ready to go home.

I outworked everyone who laughed. That was my mission.

Where I deliver locally I run into lifetime company OTR guys more often than not. They love to talk about pay. I make more than they do, with only 6m exp. I never tell them that. Bad form. I work 10 hrs a day and I’ve only 6m experience. I don’t know about snow yet really.

I still know nothing and I still can’t really back up. I don’t even bother to back my personal vehicle up. Lol.

Look for little family owned businesses in your area. Then be prepared to charm, hustle and bust your ### to make your local job ideal. It was pure torture for a bit. But now?...

I’m more than content. I made the position I have.

 

Any of you guys on here know about tire delivery? It's for DHL out of York PA doing tire delivery .Unloading your self.

 

Hey Chinatown do you know any good companies hiring local owner operators in the Philadelphia area.? If so please help me thank you

 

I heard of one that runs airport to airport; linehaul work. I think they're headquartered in New Jersey.
