Advice on going back OTR

Don't mention the criminal record unless the application specifically ask's. Most companies don't go back 10 years on that issue.

 

You're right, be honest about it, but don't volunteer information if not asked.

 

Usually just cite the basics, tell the truth but give them the bare minimums. What area of Iowa?

 

Las Vegas great place to live and no income taxes in Nevada.

 

@Stone Dude ... Following n best of luck to ya, man.

 

Try Maverick, they may be able to work with your situation if your looking to stay in flatbed. Couple guys out of school went to Decker's refer division. Seen some good in this forum on Schuster. Don Hummer may be an option.

I'm in the Quad Cities and stuck with a local small fleet.

 

Jones Bros. Trucking in Missoula,MT is flatbed and runs 48 states. They run Canada also, but you can't go there due to criminal record. They'll probably still hire you though and give any Canada runs to other drivers; that's what other companies do.
