    Been asking around, & was told this forum is a great place to ask my question. Thanks in advance for your help!

    I'm getting up there in age (62), and looking for a company that runs primarily CA, AZ & NV, or that has dedicated in that region. I live near Kingman, AZ, and want to get through home fairly regularly. I currently drive 48 for a great company out of Nashville area, but they're not able to get me home more than every 4-6 weeks. I'm not really looking for tons of miles, just a tighter radius so I can slow down a little, and go easier on my old self!

    Any suggestions? Thanks for any help.

    Jeb

    CTI and IWX both suck. Dillon is hitting craigslist hard ... good place to work, somewhat sub par pay. The True Value distribution warehouse is a Ryder shop, great pay and benefits ... I would check them out. North American Pipe in Yucca dedicated is CPC logistics, flatbed ... great pay and benefits. Star foam has their own fleet, seriously sub par pay.

    If you want flatbed Kerr isnt to bad of an outfit. Pay is a bit sub par.

    Fuel haulers are always hiring in Kingman. They are all places I would not work. As stated before, pay in the area is sub par for the job you are doing. That said, if ya want home every night or day depending on shift, and 50k a year ... it may be worth your while. Jonesco is hiring all the time and they will train.
