    Not sure if i post this here or elsewehere but it does have to do with tanks.
    I recently bought a truck finally(no payments), What are some good companies to pull for?
    Ive applied to Ergon, Heniff, Questliner, Quality Carriers not sure who else to apply for. Maybe there some company i dont know that yall know

    Not sure if anyone remembers me here but i was the guy who was strugglin with cryo hauling Nitrogen but then i found out that it wasnt me that was the problem, it was actually that the trailers sucked. Thankyou to those who tried to help me out during that time.

    If you are still in TX, & you have cryo experience....it's a no-brainer: apply with LGT Transport.

    You're welcome.

    i still live here in TX. They hire owner ops? i tried to get on with them as company driver after i left southern pines in 2024 but they didnt want me, i spoke to them over the phone.The cryo thing only lasted 3 1/2 months so im not sure if they would even count that as experience to a company.

    just checked their page and it says "company, Lease purchase driver, teams"

    The worst that could happen: they just say, "No."

    Kudos to you -- for getting a truck on your own -- instead of a fleece-flop program.

    If the other carriers listed above say "no"...or otherwise don't pan out -- then try KAG, or Kenan Advantage Group:

    I talk to KAG over the phone some weeks ago before buying the truck and i was told they're not takin owner ops from TX at the moment. I guess i could try an throw in application still. I really dont want to go back to pullin dry van again, im so tired of it.

    Plan "C": look up/talk to Viking Transport, in the Petal, MS area.

    They seem to work a lot of owner ops.

    Interesting work...lots of LPG.

    I pulled some Gas Innovations trailers for another company I worked for.But I don't know if they hire O/O directly.

    Trailers were new and very nice.I pulled compressed carbon monoxide, tube trailers.

    LGT has been helping us up here in the PNW and their drivers have said they have been struggling for work most of the year until we called. These guys were out of Houston.
