    Freymiller will probably hire you once you get your cdl back. They hire drivers with long gaps in driving. Hired a driver not too long ago that had been off the road 5 years.
    "At Freymiller, we’ve got a special program for experienced drivers who’ve been off the road for a little while.
    Our Restore finishing program will pair you with a certified mentor to give you the recent on-the-road driving experience you need to step into a job as a Freymiller company driver."

    Danny Herman Trucking doesn't run Northeast at all. They do hire new cdl grads that have an 85 GPA in trucking school. They have two facilities in California near San Diego, so you'll see the west coast often.

    OK, good. They're based in Mountain City,TN and have several terminals scattered around. Most of their freight lanes are below I-40 which is a big plus, in my opinion.
