    Plenty of reefer freight coming out of South Florida, but maybe not enough for all the companies that want to run there.
    ~
    May Trucking Company has terminal in Pensacola.
    Kold Trans has a facility in Miami.
    Both are reefer companies.
    ~
    Prime Inc. terminals are in Pierson and Miami.

    Suggestion: "Think outside the box"

    To clarify -- consider moving to Georgia, instead. And just visit the kids from there. Your trucking carrier options will expand LIKE CRAZY above that GA/FL line. :p :D

    Most carriers really seem to like Georgia (lots of freight, maybe? :scratch:). BONUS POINTS -- if you live in the northern half of the state.

    I should know -- I live in south Ga....not far at all from the FL line.

    Like it, or not -- admit it, or not -- ready, or not: Atlanta, GA....and the surrounding area (i.e., basically the northern half of the state)....is an economic powerhouse....with the freight volumes/traffic to go along with it.

    They don't call it...."the crossroads of the south"....for nothing. :p

    I learned this the "easy" way....back when the economy crashed, due to the covid shutdowns.

    Atlanta-area freight kept me running....while a lot of other drivers wondered when/where their next load was coming from......:(

    Have to pay state income taxes in Georgia, but not in Florida.
    I've lived in Florida, Tennessee, Nevada, all "no state income taxes", and if I ever leave Nevada, will move back to Florida. In Florida, probably move to Melbourne area which is only 70 miles to Orlando.
