    It's good to check what's around you locally. I know by me in the Scranton/Wilkes Barre area there are few good regional companies.
    1) Gress Refrigerated Service
    2)Road Scholar Transport
    3) Bolus
    These companies say you will be home on weekend.
     
    cbake7 Thanks this.

    I used to get emails from Red Gold Tomatoes. I think they are a regional carrier you can check out.

    I also live in Charlotte. I’ve been with Cargo Transporters for 4 years, and I’m pretty happy with them. And I’m home every weekend, usually both Saturday and Sunday.

    Millis has a pretty big yard/training school in Eden, NC. With regional, you’ll be home on Weekends and you also will have DirecTV, and xm radio. I’m pretty happy here as an OTR driver.
     
    cbake7 Thanks this.

    Awesome. Tankers are great too. You won’t go wrong with either.
