    Anyone find a good company around the area that gets you decent family time and is closer? (other than coke a cola, pepsi, etc)

    A&R has gone downhill lately after they were bought up by some Schnieder execs. Just go read some reviews on indeed.com

    LTL is the way to go if you're close to a city. Southeastern Freight, Old Dominion, Fedex freight to name a few.
     
    Chinatown Thanks this.

    Agree, these are good companies:
    Southeastern
    Saia
    Old Dominion
    FedEx Freight
    Estes Express
    Averitt Express
    Colonial Freight Systems has regional lanes.
    Milan Express - don't know how they are now, but at one time a good regional outfit.

    Marten Transport has the Walmart account in Shelbyville.
    Estes Express has a terminal in Smyrna.
    Some of those companies listed have small terminals scattered all over Tennessee.

    I know First Fleet has local & regional OTR. I drive for them OTR and am home every other day or two. Their HQ is in Tennessee, and have terminals dotted around the area. Hopefully, you're near one that does a 100% d/h account, like the bakery, and not the roll stock loads.

    Louden County Trucking seems to be pretty good at getting their drivers home on a regular basis.
