    Someone told me that. I made some dumb mistakes in college that caused me to end up with a misdemeanor so I’m trying to give It a while before I apply to them. I know they’re probably a little stricter with requirements

    Do you have a couple of years experience? If so, try JNJ Express out of Memphis. I talked with them and their recruiter told me routes into Florida is one of their running lanes. They sound like a good outfit to work for
     
    ThomasTrucker21 Thanks this.

    I don’t yet but just trying to find someone to get my career started with. Start at Tampa truck driving school September 14th. I may have a shot with Freymiller but they told me they aren’t taking drivers from Florida currently but the recruiter did tell me to check back in next month or so

    Abilene has plenty of Florida freight and hires from as far South as ft Lauderdale. Maybe further south too, but that's where I lived.

    It was nothing for them to deadhead me 300+ miles home after delivery in Jacksonville and 4-500 miles back out of Florida after hometime.
