    Hey guys, I've been thinking of moving to Orlando Florida. How's the LTL sector there?

    FFE has a terminal in Dundee (Winter Haven)

    Our Linehaul is LTL OTR. The linehaul division basically transports loads from one terminal to another. Drop & hook. (Since covid we have had loads pulled from the board to keep us running. Not as much as when it 1st hit)

    We also can get ask to help w/ local or regional loads. Those pay by the hour (local) Regional (mileage w/ stop pay)

    They also have local & regional drivers too.

    I included linehaul mileage pay below. If you have any questions, just ask.

    I posted this in another thread a few months ago where someone was asking a similar question about local work out towards Orlando:

    Fedex Freight, Southeastern Freight Lines, UPS Freight, Estes, AAA Cooper, XPO, R&L, ABF, Sysco, US Foods, PFG, GFS all have terminals in or near Orlando. The fuel haulers out there are probably mostly the same as they are over here in Tampa too: Eagle, Kenan, Energy Dispatch, Speedway, Penn Tank Lines, Torrissi, Coraluzzo. I don't know a lot about that side of the business though. I run P&D in Tampa and make $28.40/hr which is about average for LTL down here I'd say. I'm not sure what the pay is like exactly for food guys or fuel guys, but it's probably in the same ballpark.
     
    LTLdreamin Thanks this.
