    MD, CT and Mass are one heck of a commute for someone wanting regional out of Atlanta

    Boaty’s Transport is out of Jackson,GA. My dad runs for them as a o/o. I’m pretty sure he bought home atleast 1400 a week as a company driver but that’s with his experience (30+ years). Don’t know if it’ll help they are pretty close to you and they’re in Atlanta a ton.

    Ltl probably the closest you are going to get near that cash. For the most part netting 1500-2000 every week as a trucker is about as likely as tossing your retirement in the wishing well.

    Papa Johns in Acworth , GA is always hiring . Those drivers make incredible money but work for it .

    Mclane Food service is always hiring drivers . Extra board can make $100k + but once again , your back will hate you

    Other than that , LTL comes to mind and being in ATL you should have some good size terminals ..

    You're in Atlanta... I know a certain brown parcel company that is headquartered out of there. I have no idea how they hire down there, though.

    That job would be more than regional. You would be home everyday. If you are patient, you could make your goal within four years, maybe three if you were lucky.

    Otherwise, you can make somewhere between not quite that much and a lot less than that starting immediately.

    As long as you got overtime after 40, you'd be surprised how quickly it adds up. The checks aren't going to blow your wig back, but you could live on it.
