    I thought I would throw this out there just to see what people have to say before I call them. I am putting together my list of questions and all of that good stuff.

    I have been running OTR for 6 years. At least for now I need something regional. My mum needs some help, she's getting older. There's a woman in the mix... etc. Life stuff.

    Anyways, Dupre Logistics seems to be well established here in TX. I don't have tanker experience, but my endorsements are in order.

    I found an ad online for local, advertised 105k annual, home daily. 5 on, 2 off. Then 5 on and 3 off. 4PM to 4AM. I can't find Dupre's Austin TX location. It is listed on their website as "satellite"

    That's local, I'd prefer regional. I'd rather not commute daily... Austin traffic being what it is.

    How is Dupre doing these days? I did a search and read the previous threads over the years. It seems to be they're acceptable.

    I couldn't find anything for Dupre in the Travis CAD's website so I reckon they're leasing a yard from someone.

    If you want something regional:

    Andrews has a terminal in Deer Park next door to the Love's, as well as in Diboll, the Dallas area, and the Beaumont area. When I worked for their former sister company we hauled a lot of lubricants and solvents, mostly out-and-back. I think Andrews also does dry van.

    I think Wynne has a terminal somewhere in the Houston area, but I don't know anything about their operations.

    You might also consider Coastal Plains. They have a bunch of options, including cryo from Houston to various places around Texas.
