Employers are like anything else, no matter where you go some will love it some will hate it.
Yes, I mean what do you want to haul. Doesn’t do any good to suggest reefer companies if you want to pull flats. Ya know?
@Chinatown is like TTR yellow pages on employers.
Where are you located? That would probably help people suggest a better employer.AfterShock Thanks this. -
Hard to say the miles you’ll get though. I’ve only worked at 1 mega and I averaged 2900-3500/wk. Obviously some weeks were worse some better. That was at KLLM hauling reefer stuff. Some people I met there were starving to death and couldn’t get miles to save their lives. Lots of variables.
AfterShock Thanks this. -
Thanks man. I am in Maryland
-
wow that's nice man...yeah and weird too because like you said you were killing it and others begging for some. Do you think any of that had to do with them as drivers..the company, mixture?AfterShock Thanks this.

No problem at all. I’m off work and bored, thus the responses lol. East Coast employers idk. I’m from the South East. Good luck and more people should be chiming in eventually.Back2truckin Thanks this.

A mix if I was to take an educated guess.
Driver and I had the same dispatcher, they’re not running and I am.
So who knows.AfterShock and Back2truckin Thank this. -
Appreciate ya and stay safe out thereSavageMuffin Thanks this.

Why not let someone else pay for it and not be obligated. WAOI funded training for instance.

Go to a 160 hr. cdl school then sign on with a reefer outfit that runs coast to coast and lets you take the dog. All these let you take the dog.
