    Try Gordon trucking, their reefer drivers go coast to coast. Also flat creek transport runs team reefer coast to coast. Benny whitehead, quest, kinnesaw....theres quite a few, mostly reefer companies though.

    Is that true? And what do you have to back this statement up with?

    Hate to break it to you, i run for a company of 300 trucks, that we still run coast to coast. Load in Cen, Cali, unload in Conn, Reload in vermont, unload in southern nevada.
    By the way i'm a solo driver.
    The secret,, proper trip planning, and a solo can still get,3000-3200 miles a week. with out a reset.

    There are plaenty of coast to to coast trucking companies out there. Benny Whitehead, Armellini, Inman, Svert. Most of the the flower carriers out of FL go out to Cali and reload back to FL.
