    Hi , sorry to hear about your accident, and job loss. I am a single mother needing help getting relocated from fl to az. I wish I could just fill the u-haul, tow the car and go, only I have four kids, and cannot fit everyone in the cab of u-haul. so not sure where to look to solve my problem but thought maybe a trucker needing to go out there but cant find load could help, or maybe sometimes they can add stuff to a partial load, anyway if you can help or you have any suggestions for me,
    thanks:biggrin_25525:

    A lot of things have changed in 10 years...

    Countless DOT regulations related to securing freight on a flat bed...while you may know how it was done 10 years ago, you don't know whats legal now.

    I was otr for several years before going local for a couple years just be laid off a year ago. Tried the temp services...no good just ads to your dac report. More junk to right down on your apl. I have been searching for almost a year! Nothing I keep trien! They all want that 6 months in the last year or 1 year in the last 3 years otr. I have held my cdl since 1999 no accidents ect. I was thinking I was alone in this but after reading all these posts I see I am not alone. Ma and pa companies here must be hidden cause I have had a real hard time locating them. I even offered the retraining thing even though I KNOW HOW TO DRIVE! I hate to admit it but I will take the training pay at this point! Those big checks I used to see have been long gone for a long time anyway. ....just letting you know your NOT ALONE!

    Although we feel your pain. This is not the place for your posting. Try Craigslist.
    No hard feelings!
