I was at Crete Carrier terminal here today... spent 6 hrs chatting with some lovely drivers and a trainer...
A couple took me to their truck and showed everything inside..
Will go back there tomorrow to speak with folks in the office and get a few more info...
Didn't make my mind yet... I like their pay very much and the variety of accounts. But there are several things that I don't like about them...
Best company to live in truck full time

Based on your other responses, I don't think we're the best match for you, as our two terminals are in Minnesota and Ohio, not the Mid-South as you desire. Good luck in your endeavor.Rocks Thanks this. -

The week before going to driver's school I looked up big carriers.
Swift, Schneider among other's already listed above.
Schneider was the only trucking company at that time to offer me a plate of goodies.
1) Free transportation to and from school. In my case they reimbursed me for gas and tolls.
2) Free hotel for 4 weeks
3) Two free meals a day at the cafeteria inside the Scneider Terminal and it was really good food.
4) Paid me $80 a day for the whole time I was in school and then $90 a day while driver training.
5) I signed no contract to work for them and had no obligation what so ever after receiving my CDL -

As some have said
You need to get out of and away from the truck
Even if you had a big bunk you still need to recharge in a different environment
Get out and spend some of that $$ on an upscale resort or ?? For a couple days each month
You’ll still be $$ ahead and actually feel like you have a normal life
You should be able to find deals online especially if you’re somewhat flexibleBlueThunderr Thanks this. -
