Is Flatbed Reliable for Home Weekly?

Hey everyone. I currently drive dryvan but I'm looking into flatbed. My primary goal is to find something that reliably gets me home every week. Staying mostly regional and keeping a day schedule are my secondary goals. I assume that coming home every week would probably accomplish the latter by default, but correct me if I'm wrong.

My question is if flatbed is reliable for this, or at least better than van, reefer, tanker etc...

Thanks in advance

 

It's definitely not my first choice. But regional is getting hard to find in other areas, and what's left of it is often 10-12 days out instead of 5-7.

 

Two examples in my area are CFI and PTL. Their postings still say weekly, but it's actually 10-12 when I call. Those aren't the only places, just two of the more prominent examples I've encountered recently.

 

I'm in South Mississippi but I prefer not to post my zip. While I appreciate recommendations for specific companies, I'm at a point where I'm either going to stay where I'm at for the winter or change what type of trucking I do entirely.
