    Hello everyone,

    Looking at getting into OTR trucking. I live in Western WI, 50 miles east of the Twin Cites. With the main Terminal being in Superior do they have a shop in Inver Grove yet? Just wondering about any information about Halvor Lines. They are in the Top 20 Fleets to drive for.

    Are they mostly East Coast? Where do they run?

    Pay, Benefits, etc... ?

    Thank you in advance!

    If your not afraid of a little work I would apply at a company called Wholesale Produce Supply in Minneapolis. It's one of the best jobs in the area. I can expand if your interested

    I would rather wanna run out West.. Obviously I have no OTR experience but East Coast just makes me think a lot of cities and traffic.. But like I said I don't know anything about whats better etc @Chinatown

    Let me dig through my notes and see what I can come up with for you.
    @blzim
    M.C. VanKampen covers 75% of the country excluding the East Coast. Some of our main destinations are: California, Arizona, Washington, Idaho, Utah, Texas, Georgia, Alabama.

    K&B Transportation - no northeast and has guaranteed minimum weekly paycheck of $1125.00 and you can make more, but not less.

    A & A Express headquartered in Brandon,SD - no northeast
