    Tow company Melbourne area if you’re interested in lowboy work moving machinery around. I was offered a job a few years ago by them and didn’t have any lowboy experience at all. Home everyday.. can give you a contact if you’re interested.


    There’s jobs out there but like others have said it’s a little tough right now.

    Cowan, I see them a lot in Florida and Georgia. Don’t know anything about them other than they don’t look like Bozo’s on the road

    Jacksonville is 2 hours from me. Also, I don’t trust any company that pays by the mile. It’s just asking to get scammed for free work. I’ve had my fill of that. I appreciate it though.

    Walpole..looks like they are hiring over in my neighborhood. All their equipment is absolutely new and beautiful..APU’s. Where I park my truck they have a dozen or so trucks.

    Move over to the Melbourne area and do something specialized.

    I spoke to them as well once. They didn’t want to hire me due to inexperience + hour+ transit
