    Starting school in July, out in September I already have 2 pre-hire letters from Keller and Halvor. Does anyone know the good or bad about either of these companies?

    Considering your location, have you looked into Garner, out of Findlay? Top notch company. I'd go work for them myself if I were still an OTR guy. I've heard nothing 'bad' about either you mention, tbh. Been on the road for almost 30 years, so..... no news is good news!

    They're a 'one shop' company, with top notch equipment. I still delilver asphalt at the plant right across the street for them. Keep me posted.

    Another small Ohio company is Fab Express out of Mount Vernon, but they run daycabs, and you're not actually 'close' to Mt. V ~ leme know if I can be of further help, man! Good luck with the upcoming CDL, also!
