    All LTL companies around here, dock workers are hooking sets, backing trailers in, fueling trucks, etc. Should have quite a bit of experience before you even have your permit.

    There's lots of LTL companies. In my area, AAA Cooper is needing hands now. Guaranteed, any dock worker that makes a hand will be on a truck training in 3 months if they want it.

    Gotta be a hand though
     
    tscottme and ayooT Thank this.

    I have no idea there. I know they pay well, but they seem to work more hours than the rest.

    And they have driver-facing cameras plus the normal forward-facing dash camera.

    While talking to XPO or OD, did you find anything out about their benefits, 401K, Medical, PTO, sick days, etc...? Benefits are important.
