    Try Abilene Motor Express. Mostly dry van, but some reefer. They do some Northeast though.
    Danny Herman Trucking doesn't do Northeast and does lots of west coast. It's dry van.
    @DriverToBroker
    South-East Carriers also does lots of West Coast and no Northeast.

    Yes CDS. I researched Davis and they're not a good fit for me because the terminal is almost two hundred miles away from Tampa and they do mostly night time driving. The other companies you listed in TN are way too far from me. I need a company with a terminal within a hundred miles from my house because I don't have anywhere to park the truck.

    Hogan Transport is close to here but from what I read on TTR they pay very little. I need to make at least $58k a year pre-tax. I know I can do it with a small 1099 company but there is no way I'm going down the 1099 road.

    People on here said they pay crap, like 32 cpm but I'll call them anyways. I have a lot of research to do. Finding a good driving job isn't easy. LOL
