    I am an owner operator currently hauling containers locally (home every night) I know it sounds great to some, but I am wanting to go out on the road. I currently have a cab over that is in good shape but may be purchasing a conventional for the road. I live in the southern ohio area near cincinnati.

    I am looking for a good company to lease on with that will let me experience the "freedom" of being an o/o. I am looking to come home at least weekly if not more.

    I am looking and Landstar, but are there any other good companies that might suit my needs? High paying freight, come home whenever I want.

    I have no flatbed experience , just containers and dry van.

    Appreciate any GOOD, relative info.

    Thanks and be safe out there!!

    Never heard of them. I looked them up online, are they associated with Castillini?
