Looking for a good OTR company in Texas.

Update on this topic. FYI. My local experience does not apply for OTR trucking companies. I'm applying as a new OTR driver with very little experience. 3 months experience. I found a couple of OTR companies that will hire me. Gonna see how it goes with one of the companies and stick it out for 9 months to a year or more depending on the miles and pay. Some advice for new CDL drivers serious about driving long-term . Stick with your first driving job for at least 6 months . 1 year is better. SAVE your money. Have emergency money saved before hiring on if possible. Be prepared to potentially sit waiting for a load until you can prove you can be on time safely. For example I sat for 34 to 55+ hours at a truck stop after messaging and calling the driver manager for pre plan. Having loads put on you and then removed without notification Thank you all for the input.

 

Yes.KLLM/FFE will hire.

 

Some reasons for going reefer. Like you , many don't want to touch reefer. Also economic slowdown. People still need to eat. I'm limited to companies that will hire me because my local class a driving experience isn't being considered. Many otr companies require 6 months to a year recent otr experience. I'm hiring on as a total otr noob with 3 months experience .It's a fact .I have the skill to drive but in reality I am an otr rookie. I already sealed the deal leaving my prior otr job.Im gonna have to stick it out with my next otr job before I can get decent job offers.
