I'm tossing the idea around, lately this reefer is really driving me crazy. Every place I sit for hours, detention is hit or miss. I'm happy with my current company, for the most part. Just curious what flatbed company's would be good to look at, I know about melton, TMC and maverick although not interested in another automatic truck... AT ALL. I live in Florida and have 11 months OTR experience however I'm sure most will take me that require a year but I have no fb experience. I know how alot feel about leasing but that's another thing I plan on doing, during my year OTR I've saved enough money and would be interested in leasing if the right deal came up.
Again, just trying to get ideas and keep my options open as I am content with my current company, just a little tired of all the waiting. Any suggestions to a dry can company that's decent aswell.
Thanks
Flatbed company's

The question is does Builders hire out of FL??? For FL, you have some but not a lot. Roehl hires flatbed drivers in FL. Theres a company called Rinaudo that hires in FL as well as D Mosley Trucking. Also, theres always Cypress. If it were me, I'd apply with Rinaudo and D Mosley. They both have excellent equipment. Also, if your interested, try Beyel Brothers. Not too sure if they hiring or not. That company is local to us T-Trucker.

I agree that flatbedding is a great way for exercise. Theres a local company by us called Stephens Pipe and Steel. They are out of Melbourne. Cast Crete has an office in Melbourne as well. Also, once you get your full year in, you will be eligible to work for an fleet owner at Landstar and Mercer.

Thanks challenger! Always good advice from you! , I think for right now I'm going to stay put, no reason in going back n fourth from company to company. Been a rough few days but I'll get a good night rest, tomorrow is a new day. Flatbed has always been work I've respected, and I envy you guys and girls that do the work. Maybe one day. I heard the real bucks are heavy haul!

T,
You gotta start out somewhere and if a company like Rinaudo is willing to give you a shot and train you, it might make sense to go with them. Just for kicks, fill out an application and see what they say. Just like anywhere else, start at the bottom and work your way up.
If it were me, id put in phone calls and see what the companies say. If you like it, put in a application. If you do not, move on. No harm in obtaining information. Heres a link:
