    I would not go to swift. I was going to hold out for mcelroy, but after today decided to put in more APS and see what opens up first. Check into tandem or ATS maybe even melton. Wathins shepperd. If I think of any others I will let you know. I said melton, because I think they are hiring and take newbies. Not sure with the others if you need exp, but would not hurt to try. You might try roehl as well.
     
    BIGCOUNTRY82 Thanks this.

    I have talked to melton and was told they don't take newbes. And watkins and shepperd said 3 weeks out before you get back home do they have flatbeds. I will check the other ones. thanks for the help.

    Could also try Zimmerman in PA, they are another flatbed company, and Notarps, you could check out the Black and Chrome :biggrin_25525:

    Your welcome! Yes they have flats. Another one that used to be a decent and get you home a couple nights a week and weekends off is WVT. They have went down hill lately, tho from what I have been told. Used to be if you had no flat exp , but had 6 months recent OTR they would have you follow another driver till you got your securement down. I will PM you the addy to them.
     
    BIGCOUNTRY82 Thanks this.
