I called BillyBob's Alligator Eatery and they just filled the last position. Darn.
So far I have been in touch with KLLM, Wilson and Freymiller. All sound decent.

i think KLLM just announced huge pay raises.Boondock, RussianBearTruckeR, Phenomenal and 1 other person Thank this. -
I worked for 17 years at Shaffer Trucking. They have a terminal in Deland, FL and I was OTR for all those years. I lived in Panama City and had no problems getting home. The equipment is new and they do take good care of it. Top pay is $0.67 right now, but starting pay depends on experience.

If you are moving to N FL, you may as well look into S GA companies to drive for, if there is an OK to drive from home to and from the terminal few hrs once in couple of weeks. FL has no parking anyways. We have a yard about an hr away from home, so nothing biggy, have a load, drive to the truck, leave the car and go out, come back, park the truck, go home.
Just a thought.Bozwik, Boondock, RussianBearTruckeR and 2 others Thank this. -

The companies I talked to sofar don't have terminals near Jax. They said I can keep my company truck at my place. Are you saying there are local ordinances preventing tractor parking at residences or no parking at truck stops for resets... not sure what you mean.Boondock Thanks this. -
