Practically none; three months in the middle of February. That's why I mentioned I still need to put in time at my current company; I can wait for a good opportunity if need be.
Any good reefer companies with guaranteed weekly pay?

Is the one incident why you're thinking of leaving? 3 months is so soon to jump ship.

Does your current company have breakdown pay? Can they put you in another tractor while yours gets fixed?

I know, I'm just sussing out my options. They don't even know where I should take the truck yet; I called the maintenance team in Gary and they don't have a body shop there. It's basically a dead issue until I come back to work tomorrow night. I emailed someone with more authority than the nighttime dispatch, but haven't heard anything from them yet. Yeah, they'll probably put me in another truck, but given our track record with trucks lately it's 50/50 whether that one will run good itself.bryan21384 and Eddiec Thank this.

If you can gut it out an entire year with your current company, your options will be endless. During your first year, you have some options but you want to have a lot of choices and be able to get the best money possible.

This one sometimes hires with 3 mos. experience or 4 mos. or 6 mos. experience.cdubose Thanks this. -
Thanks everyone for the responses, I truly appreciate it. After doing a little sleuthing, I think Decker has what I'm looking for; they're not a reefer-only company, but they do have a reefer division with guaranteed weekly pay. Once I have enough experience where I am I will consider putting in an application over there.

Do you have to stick with a reefer or do you just want to? There is alot of dry van options without the headache of a reefer.

I guess no, reefer isn't required. I just figured it might pay more and have a higher chance of detention pay, plus the account I'm on now is mostly reefer. But I'll take any suggestions!

Great Plains is reefer only. Their drivers are on salary. They have FL and KW.
I don't like that they stick with the industry standard of 1 day off for every 7 out. Other than that, they're a great company to drive for.cdubose Thanks this.
