    Hi Friends,

    I was considering relocating to S.Carolina (to be near my brother and his family), and they are located approximately near Columbia and Lexington.

    Anyone know of or hear of "decent companies" in that vicinity?

    Thanks for your input...!

    Ignore "experience required" because all these hire new cdl grads on a case by case basis:
    Sysco
    AirGas
    Schneider probably has dedicated accounts in the area;check the website.
    Online Transport
    XPO Logistics
    Service Transportation
    Epes Transport
    Southeastern Freight Lines
    National Carriers - Student Program if you have a CDL A, but not enough experience.
    Smith Transport
    Plenty more of the OTR companies hire from there, such as Navajo Express.
