    So I don't have to reinvent fire, does anyone have a list of carriers that:

    Service all 48 states
    Hire company solo drivers
    For home time and orientation purposes, have facilities within 50 miles of Sacramento, California (or drop yards/customers in a smaller radius that will allow a truck to be parked with or without trailer on their property for 5-7 days)???

    If no list exists and you know of a company that fits the bill, post it here so I can compile and post for others.

    Knight has a yard in Sacramento. I highly recommend reefer side. Good money, stay busy, all 48. Being you live in CA you could go regional if you wanted.

    They are out there. You just have to look. Martin transport is a reefer company. They have a terminal in the general area I believe. Not positive. Give it a look.
