Need info on otr!

Am in Virginia and already checked the local companies. I want to run OTR would be fine being home every other weekend.

Which of these is best or worst ive been approved so far:

1) Marten
2) Roehl
3) First Fleet
4) Smith Transport
5) Cargo Transporters

ANY OTHER COMPANIES YOU SUGGEST TO GO TO?????

Would really want to run miles and all 48 i enjoy also.
I have about 15 years experience on vans / reefers.

Thanks.

 

thats what i was looking for, thought being out 2 weeks was OTR its how i've always ran and i know at the companies listed there they basically said can go home every 2 weeks or 14 days.....i know first fleet and cargo are home every week or weekend. roehl and marten told me 14 days then off 2 or 12 days off 2.....

 

I understand and appreciate it. Like I said I have drove OTR almost 15 years and during those I was usually on the road 2 weeks at a time then home for two working for outfits like Shaffer and J.B. back in the days of cabovers. I made decent living then but don't recall ever having to stay on the road weeks at a time and never see my family.....I always heard from guys that did that they didn't really make much more than i did. If it has changed to where you need to stay out that long to make any money at it then i guess I'm in trouble. I can't stay away forever to support my family cause if I do that there won't be a family to come home to.

I'm not a newbie here have been there and done that but right now I'm tired of bringing home $300 checks every week when I know from talking to drivers I can easily double that and not live on the road forever. I would be happy to GROSS about $1,000 per week and know thats do-able.

 

I'm still in it. Just the place am at now really went downhill fast and i'm getting so far behind on everything at home.

Trust me i have been driving long enough to know im not gonna get rich doing this. I probably have over 2 million safe accident free miles in.

I know how it works was just checking on some comparisons, but im sure you know on here you see a lot more negative than positive on any companies im sure its just the mad drivers tend to talk about it a lot more.

The best way im sure is just when im out on the road just talk to the drivers themselves in the trucks. that will get me the best honest answers.

But, i like to use the boards here for a reference also and do appreciate any and all advise.

Thanks.
