Im considering a change in my career and driving for Swift to start out with. I live in Boise Idaho which means the closest terminal to me is in West Valley, Utah. That is about 5 hours from me. What is their policy with bringing trucks home? Im hoping that a Boise based Swift driver sees my question.
Thanks in advance!

Why not look for an Idaho-based company like Giltner? Leonard's Express has a terminal in Jerome I believe. That would be better than driving to Utah or even Lewiston.

Thus: a new driver in Swift's fleet can get exposure/experience with different types of freight -- & without changing employers. Also: if a driver decides reefer freight is not their "cup of tea" -- Swift offers other options -- & again, without the need to jump ship.
