I have been combing threads and doing google searches. I am more confused than ever. One person says company A is great then another says they are no good. I live in Orlando and am willing to go to Jacksonville and run for 1-2 weeks at a time. Most of the companies in Florida seem to be in Jacksonville. Some want previous experience with OTR and some don't. I have 2+ years and some OTR. Not much. I see Hansen and Adkins wants 3 years. Proficient was a no go at the moment. Trying to get Centurion to give me an interview. Also applied to Auto Carrier Express. I am waiting to hear back from them. I have seen many mixed reviews about Waggoners. So can anyone help me see through the fog that seems to be related to the world of car hauling? I appreciate your time and info. Thank you.
Looking to get into hauling cars (please help)

Agree with some of the other posters if you have 2 years driving exp and none in carhauling you take what you can get to get the exp.
Then after you learn and stuff you can choose another route.
Off my head I know Hanson trains not sure of there requirements and Also JMN where Ive been 2 years now trains
Far as comments from Drivers I wouldnt worry about it no company is prefect period find one that you like and make it work,
All drivers are different and all will complain about any company when they get butt hurtCameronChase Thanks this. -

Im used of delivering food and freight? -
If you can do it, the money and the benefits are generally really good. Best advice I can give is that you sign on with a company that will train you while they pay you. Then you'll find out if you can even do it.
FloTheWaitress Thanks this. -
My suggestion is to pick a company near you if there is one that will hire and train you and stick it out for a little while and stay off the internet. It can be helpfull but I find my life was so much easier before went on the computer and started over analyzing everything instead of just doing it. You will read stuff on here that will make your head spin after awhile. You'll always be wondering if you can be doing better somewhere else, worry about that later. Form your own opinion. Take the good with the bad. Some guys bring the bad upon themselves and come on here and start bashing. Good luck!
