    Calex Logistics in PA runs west coast turns. They hire new cdl grads, so you're ok there.
    Decker Truck Line
    Freymiller
    MCT Transportation
    Schuster
    Britton Transport
    Navajo Express
    Tyson Foods
    Magnum Ltd. - already mentioned; you're qualified.

    KLLM has too many meat contracts from my understanding. They get the junk loads from Tyson. That's what their drivers say anyway.

    Tyson would be looked at with askance anyway, just the mere presence of tyson products indicates to me that we will have to really go over the stuff.

    I rather not deal with it.

    Already tried freymiller they don't hire out of Western PA the recruiter said? Don't know if that's true or not.
    They seem like a good outfit to work for

    What about RWI out of Kentucky? I know an O/O least onto them with his own truck, he seems to do pretty well.

    Strange, a driver in Harrisburg area said they offered him a job. That's not western PA though.
    One of those will offer you a job; probably majority of them will.
