What companies offer Pet and Rider policy and regional route for a recent grad?

Trucking companies consider it a reckless driving offense. Any 15 mph or over is a job killer in trucking. Maybe knock on some doors with some small 4 or 5 truck companies.
Try Buel Inc. since they are a lease outfit and not a company driver outfit.
Mamo Transportation is pretty loose from what I've heard.

 

Some companies are more strict than others, but all companies want a 10 yr. history of what you have been up to for the last 10 years. Stay at home mom is fine, inmate in prison is fine, just so you can account for where you were and what you were doing. Some things are unforgiving, such as " I was hijacking ships off the coast of Somalia." This 10 yr. accounting started because of 9/11.

Since you two, "Truckergirl36" & "virginwidow" have problems, maybe team up and fight this together, run teams with some 2nd chance company until your record looks more tidy. Buel Inc./Carolina Cargo/Martin Enterprises of the Carolinas.

 

I'm trying to avoid "problems" here. That would mean being able to simply push the required papers across the desk. It would help to know WHAT (according to the regulation) satisfies "account for where..." for periods not absolved by tax returns.

Thanks

I was following this thread for the pet policy info, but the topic crossed into interesting territory. Are people saying that trucking companies verify employment history via tax documents (and not just a phone call to the previous employer)? I ask because many small businesses in the service-industry (eg, restaurants, caterers, landscaping, subcontractors, etc) will run seasonal employees off the books. If a person works several decades at a single company that can be verified via tax returns immediately followed by 6 months with a company that cannot, should the latter simply be left off the work history in the application (even if it's more recent and relevant to a driving/trucking job)?

 

Some small, local outfit would probably hire you. In fact, they might hire you now; just walk in some places and ask for an application.
