Considering a trucking job, already have CDL

Have you thought about hauling garbage? Check out republic services. Take it from me its a good good gig. I am not a recruiter in any way shape or form. The automatic restriction should not be a problem in most cases as they are mostly phased out.

 

Millis has a terminal near Atlanta. They haul beer and paper everywhere east of the rocky's. But 99% east of the Mississippi.

 

Maybe check with a local farmer? Not sure what crops they grow down there, but here in the Midwest farmers are always looking for help this time of year hauling corn and beans. Just a thought.

 

Wow...13 years experience and only making $15 an hour?



Maybe switch from County to Federal working for USPS as a TTO (Tractor Trailer Operator). Government job, easy work, Union gig...but you'll have to put your dues as a PTF before turning full-time.

 

I've been driving since 2008 started at 25cpm, now 43cpm. So 10 more years I should be at 63cpm.

 

10 speeds are junk. Usually put in company trucks so you will be fine

 

If you want to do a roll off go to Marietta Recycling. They dont have a lot of benefits, but they have insurance, vacation, paid holidays. Their roll offs are autos, but you can work your way into a tractor trailer.

 

Sadly 15 a hour does not bring in what it should.

That's a starting rate of a concrete jobber in J'Boro and it's still not sufficient. Rent would eat most of it up.
