    Hello to all. I live in Austin, TX and am looking to get into the Glass Division. Apparently, they just opened the hiring area to Austin and I have been told that I will be hauling glass out of a couple of plants in north Texas. I'd like to get some info from any drivers that are currently involved in this, mainly where are you running, miles, and home time. I'm not afraid of hard work, my current job has me hauling tires out of a warehouse in Dallas and unloading 500-700 tires a day. Thanks for the help and be safe.

    Maverick hauls glass out of Wichita Falls, TX and Corsicane, TX. You would haul alot of loads from the Falls to Laredo. And they also have a dedicated run from the Falls to the port of Houston.

    Thanks for the info Seawheeler, I've been told it's going to be basically a Texas regional. I was just wondering what kind of miles those running this were getting and where they were running besides Texas and the surrounding states. I'm supposed to start orientation on Sep 23rd and I'm really looking forward to it.
