    Living in Pennsylvania, are there good reefer companies that can offer a 14/2 schedule and maximize profits for both parties and operate outside of a regional gig? Is it asking too much to only want to be out for 14 days max?

    Holland wants 3-4 weeks out at a time and requires 2 weeks advance notice of requested home time so they probably would not be a good fit.

    What about Tyson Foods or KLLM?

    I'm sure there are a lot of companies that run "regional". If you want home every other weekend tho, don't expect great miles. The key to big miles and long runs is staying out and being available to take the load. If your wanting to go home, they can only run you out so far. They have to keep you " close" to your home 20.

    That's what I figured, I thought maybe some smaller companies might have some good freight lanes without having to be out more than 2 weeks.

    Your profile says you live in Greenville, PA. Check out Joy Cone in Hermitage, they have a private fleet and I understand they pay fairly well. Or, how about Yourga? They run flatbed and are home frequently. Or check out Pitt Ohio or Estes in West Middlesex, typical LTL operations with good bay, benefits, and hometime.

    Just noticed you posted this in the Refrigerated Forum. My bad.

    That's ok, I'm not interested in flatbedding, I'm a dumptruck driver and needing to gain my A.
