Ezzell Trucking

You have to consider your geography . Cost of living a lot lower down there

 

I lived in the Wilmington, NC area (about an hour away from Mount Olive) for the better part of 25 years. I can tell you that while $750/week gross may be the norm, it does not go very far. You can and should do better than that. That's why I left NC and moved to PA. Last year I grossed a little more than $83K, more than double what they're offering him. I slept in my own bed at home 19 out of 20 working days, and only worked weekends if I wanted to. And my cost of living is LESS than it was in NC.

So yes, I did consider the geography.

 

I was stationed at camp geiger in Jacksonville for a few years. I went to cape fear community college truck driving school. I kinda like the east Carolina area

 

I had some good times over there. I left the area in 98. I'm sure it's changed a lot now

 

Is the work hard (lifting)? Or is it mostly driving? I get that you have to strap log loads. I got an app in with Ezell. Gotta commute to Ahoskie if I get hired on but I like driving out here in Eastern rural NC. Up to now dry van, reefer, and a short stint in flatbed. Not looking for an MBM food type gig.
