    I am from NJ and just starting training for Central Refrigerated. They do not have an East Coast regional fleet. Does anyone know if I can get on a fleet through Swift or do you know of a company that has a fleet and would hire someone with less than a year experience? I was told the only way to find out is to ask other drivers while I'm out on the road. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Swift does have NE and East Coast. You can stay over there as long as you want. We also have dedicated accounts on the East Coast and NE. You do know that Swift owns Central Refrigerated now.
     
    TwiZtedFateZ Thanks this.

    Yes, I know Swift owns Central now, and even though it's been a month or so, nobody over at Central seems to know anything about Swift's end of things besides giving your trainee the nickname "Fishbait" is inappropriate....LoL
