Suggestions on companies to lease to.

I have been off the road for about four years taking care of my elderly parents. They have passed away. I'm thinking of getting back on the road . I still have my 2003 Pete 379. I used to stay out a month at a time. Not sure if I want to do that anymore. I've gotten used to living a more normal life. I am thinking of an out and back operation or southeast regional. I don't need to make big money and don't want to work all the time. But, I'm getting kinda bored and like being productive. I have considered containers and it seems my local grocery warehouse uses some contractors, but I haven't checked into either. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I live in western NC . Asheville to be exact.

 

Thanks for the reminder. I had looked at them a few years ago. Never got a lot of info though. Furniture is light. I've hauled a few loads. Some of the stores are in town. Could be challenging. I'll keep that in mind. Thanks again.

 

Containers might work for me. I live a few hundred miles from some ports. But, I've met a few former container haulers I've heard stories of cheap, heavy , and problem chassis. Maybe there's a good company.
I am not really familiar with that segment of our industry. Thanks.

 

I drove for 20 years. I worked for JB ( sucked unbelievably ), MS Carrier ( lots of east coast ), then Crete, which was where I stayed for 18 years. They were really good in the '90 's.
So, I'm a mega company specialist.
I did try a small company here. Low $ and they didn't seem to have a concern for hos rules . I have bent some rules in my time. But one week they wanted me to run about 5100 miles in 6.5 days. I don't need that kinda stress.
