    Im a new driver and I would really like to find a local job but a lot of the jobs for new drivers are regional or OTR. I wouldn’t mind regional but would prefer local. Any help?

    Along with construction companies look at cement companies an companies that pull dump trailers. Around illinois we're we live there is local dump work all over the state. Along with that there is dry bulk tank and end dump work that is local that runs in an out of the cement plants. Some of the cement plants have their own end dump an bulk tank drivers in addition to mixer trucks.

    Any food service or construction company, but you will definitely earn your money at those #### holes

    I started out doing bottom dumps to cement plants. Ater a year I switched to fuel delivery. I've never done OTR.
    It can be done.

    Some people do those types of jobs an end up loving it. If my wife an i weren't teaming I'd go back to end dump work at a local construction co or cement plant in a heartbeat. But it's definitely not everyone's cup of tea.
