    Avoid that 1099 Mess. Fresh into this industry. Start off with valid companies mentioned above. Research everything possible.

    I recommend running 48 states to start your career. There's always those dedicated accounts for Walmart, Dollar General, etc; trust me, there will always be openings for those. Don't be fooled by some recruiter telling you how fortunate you are to get one of those accounts because usually they're reserved for experienced drivers. That's all BS. Those accounts are OK for drivers with family issues and need to be home every day or almost every day, but other than that you will be burned out fast with the same, exact routine every day.
    Schneider Bulk can lead to those $65K-$80K jobs within 24 months. Either do this or run coast-to-coast with another company.

    Prime owns Henderson and works under primes authority
    might as well apply for prime inc. If your gonna try Henderson. Start off making $700 a week weather your moving or not. State of the art facility here in springfield, salt lake city utah, and Pittston Pennsylvania. Hire 21 year Olds and have a great training program, we have all Eaton 10 speeds and trailers are no older then 5 years and trucks no older then 4 years. All tractors equipped with apus, deer guards, bunk heaters, this stupid buzzer that buzzes if you cross the lines on road, and of course we have e-logs, we run freightliner Cascadias (normal and lightweight) kenworth t680s, peterbilt 587s andddd internationals (not sure of model we have very, very very few)! But chances are your gonna get a freightliner that's 70% of the fleet, enless you go lease then you can pick your truck. Any questions?

    Oh yea and we have tanker, flatbed and refer divisions.
