    TMC will always be hiring. Keeps the training department busy, the trainers busy, and keeps our trucks full with drivers.


    and especially because I hear they're planning to expand our numbers by like almost 500 trucks I believe?

    I'm told they can be stubborn. I'll get there with a couple hours left, and they have parking on site. So if I get it of tonight, I'll send in my empty after 9pm, then get on the board first thing in the am, and hopefully get a decent out bound load

    Sometimes I wait till about 0500 to send it in, just so it's fresh. Don't want night crew screwing me.

    Just wondering if anyone knew about the freight lanes in the NorthEast at TMC... I live in Ct and was thinking about working at TMC. I've been doing LTL P&D for 18 years now and just getting tired of it. I have to get back into a regional gig.

    TMC does have some lanes up that way, but we dont do regional per-say. Your runs will keep you within a day or two of home. The dedicated accounts can get you home daily if you can land one, then there are some dedicated runs that will have you staying in the same general region semi/regional. Best bet is to give them a call and ask them.

    That could also be one of our areas that we can't guarantee every weekend home.
