Any local drivers ever relocate for better opportunities?

You have a wonderful opportunity that millions of Americans and thousands of truckers only dream about.

 

Plenty of local jobs in Reno/Las Vegas and other no-state-income-tax locations.

 

Post #3 by @Eddiec are excellent local jobs. First you will have to make the move.
I know, it's easy for me to say, "Make the move first", but I can say that from experience.

 

Choose a town or city or zip code somewhere that you seriously would like to live, then let us know.
We'll all pitch in and find which local jobs are available and post them. You'll still have to make the move first before applying.
Trillium is still a good point of contact.

 

Do you have hazmat and tanker?

Where do you want to live? I 10 from nola and Houston has a lot of tanker work.


An hourly air gas site would pay a lot. But the hours will be a lot.

 

Once you have more than 366 days without a US driver license working inside the US again gets more difficult.

 

Get the hazmat ASAP. Thos high paying linehaul & LTL companies such as Old Dominion and several others require hazmat. You may never haul hazmat there, but then again you might. Hazmat they haul isn't the dangerous stuff; more like paint and stuff like that.

 

The flipside is those union factory guys have a hell of a pension, when they get to the other end. They’re the working class dudes who sell their place up north, move to FL, buy a home, debt free, and have the vagabonds wondering how they did it.
