    Go for one of the LTL's... almost all have terminals there. I don't know if I'd recommend Tops, delivered there a bunch and most of their drivers I met were peevish at best. Decent grocery stores, though. There is a lot of trucking in the area, you should be able to find something that works for you. If you're into doubles, a lot of the local companies run double 48's on I-90 in NY.

    On a non-trucking note, be prepared for your cost of living to skyrocket moving from ME to NY. Taxes here are stupidly expensive if you own property, often as much or more than the mortgage. I moved from Ohio back to NY to appease my wife, and my insurance and income tax increased by 2/3rds.

    I just like saying "Tonawanda"! It's fun, for some odd reason.
