    Before. I'm a 1099 with an LLC. I'd be willing to go back to a w2 for the right job though.

    Thanks for the help!

    How much experience do you have total? Living in Orlando, or north of I4 is probably the best option as many carriers will not hire south of I4.

    Melton
    Cypress
    Rinualdo
    Lonestar
    TMC
    Thompson

    possibilities:
    Jones Brother
    O/O employee for Mercer, Lanstar
    And other owner operator company who are looking to hire drivers for the owner ops.

    You can do better working W-2 out of Orlando.
    Eagle Transport I posted is a good one.

    Don’t they also do Starbucks as well? Also, there’s a Dominos DC nearby as well.
