    I have read that their main freight lanes are Midwest and Northeast. They are hiring in Alabama now. Have they picked up new freight lanes around the southeast?

    I worked for them 3 years ago and was hired out of Florida ,so Im not sure that it's something new .They had lots of freight in the Atlanta area and actually have (or did have) a drop yard off of Jonesboro in southeast Atlanta inside the 285

    I was always delivering at Kraft in union city Ga , or picking up live fish at the petsmart in newnan ga and delivering to Houston and every time I took home time I would pick up orange juice in Umatilla Fl , Lake wales Fl or coca cola in Dunedin Fl.

    Most of my time , however, was spent in the midwest ,but I went through all lower 48 states with them

    Man thanks for answering my post. Posts on here seem to say they stay in the Midwest and Northeast, but they advertise hiring in the southeast. Couldn't understand how they ever got those guys home

    They do the occasional California trip as well, maybe once a month
