    Yes, Western Express may give you a chance.

    Submit some online applications; some companies look over these applications and decide on a case by case basis. It's easy to say "No" on a phone call, but sometimes with an application to look at, they may give you a chance.

    Carolina Cargo
    Navajo Express
    Martin Enterprises of the Carolinas
    Buel Inc.

    Many drivers don't like these companies, but they're not in your situation either.

    Thanks Chinatown.. I've been reading some of your post on here you give real quality info. It's much appreciated. I applied to Carolina Cargo yesterday and they called me today and left a voicemail. I will follow up in the AM. Does anyone know if you have to relocate for them

    As far as I know, you don't have to relocate. Some drivers living in Las Vegas didn't have to relocate.
