Flat bedding or bulk tanker for new guys

Haven't seen that before; interesting.

 

I vote tanker. Bulk tanker is cool. I pulled a set of double pneumatic tanks and loved it. Flatbed is bad ### and also cool. You’ll get a little more of a workout. The only skateboarding I did was hauling totes of oil or def. I threw a strap over each row. Wouldn’t really ever say I was a flatbedder. You’ll make more in a bottle tho.

 

I would say the red is areas they don't have a lot of freight in. So, they don't want a driver from Houston, TX or Columbus, OH telling dispatch "I want my home to be in Boston, MA this weekend".

 

@Chebbydriver7195 , lots of good choices here. YOU CAN DO IT SON

You might consider Britton Transport. I work there. It is a smaller company with about 115 trucks, 20 or so of them flatbed. I am in the flatbed division. You would have to go out at least briefly with a trainer but he is great. He is on this forum. It is @MrEd. Best wishes to you!

 

How can you tell if someone’s a milk hauler?

Wait five minutes, they’ll tell you

 

So...it was CFI? I don't think I'd seen you admit to that before...seen LOTS of people ask where you were, but this is the first time I've seen the answer...

I worked at Cumberland Farms back in '91 for about 4 months...anyways, you could always tell the drivers doing farm pick-up cuz they smelled like cow manure...

Not meant as an insult, just an observation... those guys do some tricky backing up at some locations. And when I was a teenager, I spent plenty of time on my uncle's farm pitching manure...
