Roehl said no, very disappointed

I am sorry about your dilemma.

The Swift Recruiter that came to my school also told us that his boss told him not to recruit from Maine any more. The reason was that Swift doesn't have that much freight going into Maine lately. The drivers that they currently have from Maine are in excess of 300+ miles from any of there commerce areas and it is a strain on there dispatch to route them home.

Sorry, I know this must be disappointing. Have you considered a relocation? Possibly even temporarily just to get experience, maybe N.H. or V.T.

I hope things work out for you.

 

hey crasy lane try millis transfer they may hire from maine i know they haul lots of northeast freight

 

Try Smith Transport out of PA. I don't know if they hire out of Maine but it's worth a shot.

 

You are probably right Mack. I forgot they ran black trucks. Didn't they have some red ones? Someone I knew drove for them. I could have swore he had a red tractor. I must be suffering from TBF.

 

I don't think many companies accept a P.O. Box as a legit addy. And even if they did, they wouldn't authorize any additional miles past it for home-time. I could be wrong.

 

I told a couple of companies, OK, I live in Northern Michigan... What If i never go home! can i work then. Answer is still we are not hireing North of Grand Rapids. It is like we are part of the North pole up here or something. Bout ready to join the Ice road truckers. Maybe i am close enough to them.

 

Roehl is most likely shutting down their Groveton, NH yard or at least curtailing it a bunch. The mill in town is closing at the end of the year, and that is the majority of the freight up there. They do run into Maine, but mostly flatbed stuff and now they will have a bunch of drivers up there that will be looking for freight.
That might be why they said no.

 

find yourself a reefer outfit to apply with go around and c if you can find any trucking terminals throughout your stateor newhampshire or vermont at the very least mass go inside and apply
