    KoldTrans has some type of facility in Miami. Don't know if it's just an office or what.

    Okay brief update, FFE has hit me back but I haven't actually spoken to anyone. Sysco declined me again :) and I applied to Pepsi and Koldtrans and Cheneybrothers. I really appreciate the help given though.

    Actually Koldtrans is based on the West, so actually no point in applying to them.

    Kold Trans has a facility in Miami. Don't know if it's a drop yard or office or what.

    UPDATE:

    8/2023 was hired with ezfill. I ended up leaving in November. It was a dead end gig with no growth. I would not have been able to use Cdl experience due to not driving tractor trailer nor a suitable class b vehicle. CMV was outfitted f150’s.

    I changed my license in November to GA and picked up a Gig soon after i made the switch. I was picked up by swift transportation. I’m currently here since November on a dedicated account with dicks sporting good. The grounds covered is regional from Texas to SC AND from ATL as far down to Miami I get .60 a mile but they are definitely making sure I don’t pass a threshold on earnings. But I’m just holding on until 6 to 1yr to find a permanent company that’s paying at least 1600 weekly in miami once I get the experience.

    hometime is ok (2 weeks on and 4 to 5 days off if u choose) they have stores in miami so I just let dispatch know if they can send me to a miami store here and there when I feel like going home if I don’t want to use hometime. But it’s only for a day or 2. If I have longer down time or use hometime I’ll fly back from atl to miami commute is cheap. Flight tickets usually under $60 round trip if I can plan a week in advance.
