Finished college trucking school what company is good for beginners

Looks like FFE only wants Texas Residents.

 

Right out of school I would go CFI. They were my first company. They are just better than most starter companies IMHO.

 

Call anyway, a guy posted recently they hired his buddy in New Jersey. Hiring with trucking companies changes as they lose or gain customers all over the USA.

CFI is probably a good place to get a career started.

I will be graduating Cdl school soon was wondering if you knew of good companies for beginners in my hiring area. I'm 37 yrs old I live in West Palm beach fl, I have a tanker endorsement on my class b Cdl. I don't want to work for a mega carrier for obvious reasons.

 

I'm mostly considering dryvan, or tanker that doesn't involve hazmat. I don't mind going OTR but would prefer a dedicated or regional run. I would also consider relocating, I don't have a wife or kids so I'm married to the money any advice is greatly appreciated.

 

Delivered a new bulldozer to some construction company in West Palm Beach one time. Picked it up in New Jersey.
That far south in Florida limits your choices, but there's jobs available.
I'm curious what your school's job placement has on their list.
Vero Logistics - in Margate has solo and team runs. Trucks have Tripac APU, inverter, refrigerator, pet can ride along and no pet fee.
Florida Beauty Express - in Miami has team runs to California and sometimes a big triangle; Miami to California to New York & back to Miami. The benefit is you can take as much time off as you want between runs without fear of losing your job. This company also has local runs within Florida for solo drivers.
Monterey Boats - Williston,Florida
Abilene Motor Express - decent outfit & one of their trainers lives near you.
Titan Transfer - dry van outfit with nice trucks that hires new cdl grads.
Milan Express - not sure they hire that far south, but worth a try because they do hire Florida drivers.
FFE (Frozen Food Express) - has terminals in Winterhaven and Miami.
Roehl Transport - I've seen their ads looking for drivers as far south as Miami.
MCT Transportation - has a terminal in Sanford & orientation is in Auburndale.
Fastenal - their website has "experience required", but they do hire new cdl grads. Many trucking companies do that for some reason.
Butler Transport
Freymiller - www.drive4freymiller.com
Covenant Transport - need hazmat endorsement.
Southern Refrigerated Transport
Sygma Network - food service & hauls for Sysco.
