Dot has a ton of part-time drivers who only run a load per week, only weekends, etc. One wouldn’t necessarily have to work their available 4/4 schedule.smokey12, Opendeckin and Lonesome Thank this. -

Yes. They generally run multi-temp food loads. However, the part time drivers usually run shuttles DC>DC or trailer swaps. -
If you have a good diesel pickup you could go sign on at one of the camper hauling companies in Elkhart County, Indiana. The small one I worked for doesn't care if you come and go. Lots of guys do it seasonally or off-and-on like that. Doesn't pay a hell of a lot to run a truck, but it's fun when the weather's nice and easy/low hassle as far as trucking jobs go. "I'll be there Wednesday with your trailer." "Okay, any time between 9 and 4 is fine!"
Lonesome and Opendeckin Thank this. -

My buddy does it. He drives tankers for Liquid Transport out of Liberty, MO. He usually works 3ish days per week and does well.
Opendeckin and Lonesome Thank this.
