    Lots of chemical plants along the Gulf coast, so consider tankers.

    Yes, Knight has a terminal in Lakeland, FL but don't know if you can be assigned to that terminal or not. Call and ask.

    You planning to move to Gulf Coast?

    Most companies won't be concerned, but a few will. Look at some coast to coast outfits. If you relocate and change your domicile to another state, consider those with no personal income tax such as Nevada, Texas, Florida.
    Consider some reefer outfits; when I pulled reefers did lots of Florida/California runs.

    A company wants to hire a driver with no problems that may pop up later on. Be careful what you disclose. Only tell a company what they need to know. By all means do NOT lie to them, just don't be chattered box and tell them items that might hurt you. If it comes back to haunt you just say you believed that it has nothing to do with your trucking abilities. Let your skills do the talking.
