    Trimac hires OTR out of Chicago if you're on the south side of the state otherwise I'm not aware of anything else.

    Schneider would be easier to get on with but I'm pretty sure their closest bulk terminal to you would also be in Chicago (Gary, IN).
     
    Mmike Thanks this.

    have you searched some of @Chinatown 's posts? Kudos on tanking, man. There's a LOT going on up in Toledo at the ports, in the tanking world, but not sure how close you are.

    Check out MC Tank, and Ashley Transport (not the furniture company.) They both do a LOT of hauling out of the Shelly Company Asphalt plant in Toledo, right at the port area, and on the border. Also, Shelly hires on their own; and pay really well. So many intermodals there, too. Oakley, QC, Gary Schumaker, . . . etc..

    I live three hours *(almost)* away.. South, so it was never a viable option for me. There is SO much going on in that vicinity; if it's only an hour away, you can fare well. Let me go thru some dashcam vid's and I'll get you some more names in a day or 2 to come. Great area for tanking. Kudos!
     
    CasanovaCruiser and Mmike Thank this.
