Ozark Motor Lines is dry van. No Canada, no NYC, 100% no-touch freight. Trucks have APU's.

Being out for a month isn't necessary. Most smaller local outfits will have you home on weekends. I work for a mid size company, about 60 trucks and 20 of them is otr. I run otr and average 3000 miles a week. Home every weekend (unless I go to Cali) and sometimes spend one night at home during the week. Some of the smaller companies want you to have 1yr experience. I would still give it a shot tho. Good luck driver.

Thank you for the replies, I'm gonna look at Ozark, and prime from a pm and check out craigslist to see whats in this area.

Unless you live along the coast, you are in the hiring area for Boyd Bros. One more mth of flatbed exp and you would qualify for a $2k sign- on bonus lol. Right now you'd qualify for a $1k sign-on plus .39cpm. Hometime for your area is 6-7 days out with 24-36hrs home.

Thank you, I'll also look into Boyd bros.
Drivers girl Thanks this. -
Call danny herman also. Really good company. Great home time no NE OR NW states. Tell Darrin in #1233 sent you. Really worth a shot.

You have any questions about Boyd, let me know. If I can't answer, either I can call my bf and ask or I can give you his number lol.Good luck to you.
