tanker endorsement? how is the dairy industry in your area. around here its a big thing with over a dozen carriers specializing in milk hauling. home daily, sub $60K wages, good experience...heavy trucks and 18 speed transmissions. construction dump truck and dump trailer aren't bad places to start either, but depending upon your location that work is often seasonal in nature.

Thanks for the quick replies! Yes, I'm a little over an hour from i81 and Bristol VA. I'll look into those asap.
Dairy doesn't really exist here. It's all coal country. I wouldn't mind driving a coal truck but I've got little experience and probably wouldn't get hired by the local companies.
TMC advertised home weekly, and the recruiter "confirmed" it. Can't say for sure because I'm not there. Lol.IluvCATS Thanks this. -
In my opinion TMC is a decent company for a new driver. But with your 1-year old ticket, they might pass on you. Not sure. As far as home weekly, I wouldn’t count on it. I work for a competitor flatbed company. My recruiter was honest but stretched the truth about how often the truck would be routed thru my home town. She said 20% of all the loads go thru my city and I believed it. Not true at all. Oh well. Anyways. See who wants you first. Then come back and say who.
red70tvhs Thanks this. -
Many North Carolina drivers that work for TMC are home weekly.
Danny Herman Trucking is good if you don't want home weekly. No northeast runs at all and most freight lanes are below I-40. They're based in Mountain City, TN. Lots of Texas and southern California freight. -
Chinatown Thanks this.

Go to the main page on this site. The truckers report is actually how I found my job. Also If you apply at a company using intelliapp, you won’t have to keep filling in all the categories.
VIDEODROME Thanks this. -
IluvCATS Thanks this.
