    I recently saw where Southern Cal Transport has a dedicated opening out of Wilmington, NC. There hiring radius is 250 miles from Wilmington, NC. I only live about 100 miles from there and was considering this position.

    I was just wondering if anyone has driven for this account or know anything about this company. I do know they were bought out by Transport America. I'd like to know things such as do they get you home when they say they will, are they a decent company to work for, what areas do they run. Things like that.

    Also would like to know the location where they do orientation. I am not much for a bus ride across country. I will eventually call recruiting but wanted to see what other drivers had to say about this company.

    Anything would be appreciated.

    Transport America and Southern Cal have separate websites even though they are the same company.

    I live in Wilmington. The only thing I see them hauling is containers out of the port.
