    Aren't they in Virginia on I-81; not too far from the Tennessee line?

    If you actually like bigger companies theres lots of TLD, averitt, fedex, danny herman, tmc, jordan, big G express around here constantly.

    H.T. hackney, TLD, crete, estes, old dominion, red classic all have terminals in knoxville. Theres zero worry about finding a truck job there.

    I'm not too picky, as long as they fill my bank account, dont bother me too much and keep me busy I'll be a pretty happy camper. Reliable equipment and quick loading and unloading would be nice too but not holding my breath haha

    If I were moving to Knoxville, I would try to get hired on at Old Dominion. Nice new terminal, all new Trucks, and good folks over there. About the best work environment I’ve seen, at any LTL Company, and I’ve seen a lot. Located right behind Petro. Don’t know about running Northeast, I’ve never heard of anyone wanting to run there. Lol
