Question-Are there any companies that hire drivers to drive their rigs solo?

I am new and going to CRST school next week. Starting a new career at 65! Been taking the online tests and studying two State CDL books (Va and Md) and reading what truckers are saying on these boards so I have a clue as to what to expect. My question is regarding finding a company that hires solo drivers to drive their rigs? Are there any such companies?

 

Yeah I know CRST is mostly team and I don't expect many companies would hire a solo unless you have at least 6 months in. Either way I am looking forward to hitting the road. Burnt out on 40 yrs of construction!--lol!

 

Hi SDaniel. Not sure yet how to PM from this site but I will figure it out. Don't know how to find Epes either--lol! I will be in touch.

 

Hi again SDaniel!-- I can't PM you until I have 7 posts!! This is post 4 so I will have to wait or babble out a couple more posts!--Ha! --I never heard of that kind of rule!--lol! I dunno what happens if you PM me and I am not sure yet where to look if you do! Rules--rules and more rules!

 

Female- CRST is a biz and they obviously have their biz set up to maximize profits via the team approach. Never having driven or been in a big rig I am an absolute rookie but I know about biz having been self employed for over 30 yrs. I will report back as to my impressions once I get started.
