I spoke to a recruiter and got the answer to my question. No apu, can bring your own inverter, no policy against idling.
Anybody know how the Jordan trucks are equipped, apu? Inverter? Fridge? Etc. Thanks.
Does TMC require experienced drivers (6 months flatbed OTR) to go out with a trainer? Thanks.
Nope. The only exception is if it was someone I know and we were running together. That happened a few times with Maverick.
Thanks hwrdbd. Is there a good rule of thumb for load positioning? With flatbed I always tried to center the load on the trailer whenever possible.

When I was there, no one went home after orientation unless their trainer lived very. I think the waiting list is waiting to go to orientation.
I did not get home but many folks do. It all depends on how far you live from your trainer. Within 150 miles and you can go home when your trainer...
Just a quick update after my first 30 days solo with Maverick. So far so good. My first week was just over 2,252 miles M-F. 2nd week I got run out...
