    If you give a more specific location, many drivers, especially @Chinatown can offer a laundry list of potential options for you in your geographic area.
    Very likely there's many others that will merit your attention.

    I'd probably go with Action Resources.
    Both companies seem ok though. Action Resources has a good benefits package and a more diversified type of hauling, which to me makes it a safer bet.

    Your also not far from Highway Transport terminals as well. I know a few drivers from there and their all quite content. And as far as I know they train as well.

    I too have heard great things about Highway. Low turnover rate and nice equipment, same pay loaded/empty. It was $.56 cpm when I inquired

    Trimac Transportation also hires in your area. They're dispatched out of Louisiana.
    Action Resources still looks good though.
