    Also, I HIGHLY recommend you research and really make sure you understand the work involved with flatbed.

    Securing the loads isn’t so bad, but tarping gets old quick and Melton tarps almost every load.

    Rate of pay doesn't mean much. Some companies pay 50 cpm but the drivers don't make as much as a company that pays 36 cpm. Reason? The miles aren't there. Just find a company to get started with and gain a few months experience.
    West Side Transport has a guaranteed minimum weekly pay where you can make more than the minimum, but not less. They hire new cdl grads also.
    The catch? Do the job you're hired to do and follow the rules; not that difficult. Don't tell an employer how good you are, then slack off after being hired.
