Sounds like you are perfect for 99% of trucking companies since they steal from drivers in one way or another

Any local construction company. None that I know of do criminal background checks. Unless over the road is your thing

To be honest I don't think you will have problems with any of the megas if they are all over 10 years old. Just be very honest and upfront about it. In the rare case that they ask you about it just tell them you messed up and you changed as a person. Every application I've ever filled out for any company have all said no felonies in last 7 years or 10 years. (I have a clean record but team drove for a year with a guy with a felony so I had to look for companies that accepted them)

U.S. Otriad Thanks this.

Ditto on Carolina Cargo; they advertise as much.
Most companies want seven to ten years since end of sentence, including any probation time, but three for theft, whew.... good luck, man. -
Nope. I know drivers with serious felonies. I even know of a driver that holds a TWIC card that was convicted of Murder. Generally the carriers dont care about the felonies as long as they are old and you are cleared to travel. Now if you are on a states registered sex offenders list you maybe not able to travel.

Don't know how he got the TWIC with a murder rap, unless he acquired it before the charge. Murder is in Part A of the Permanent disqualifications for TWIC.
