    Well, I've been working OTR with my first company for 15 months, and want to move on.

    I've decided to change my address to a family member's house in Nashville.

    What are good Dry Van OTR companies that hire out of there with passenger program from day one?

    I'll give special consideration to companies with automatic trucks and terminal in the Los Angeles area.

    By good company I mean I make a minimum of $1000 net per week.

    Titan Transfer is close to Nashville; Shelbyville.
    Danny Herman Trucking in Mountain City,TN and has two facilities in southern California. One is Calexico and not sure where the other is. They don't run Northeast.
    @tow614 drives for dry van outfit, Big-G Express.
    South East Carriers in Lawrenceburg runs west coast.
    All the above are dry van and pretty sure they all have autos and diesel APU.

    Hit Craigslist Nashville. Buttloads of jobs, many with CA. Some decent smaller companies here that you may only find on CL. I got my job there.

    Big G does not go west coast.

    New trucks are automatic but you would not get one for a couple of years.

    Pay depends on how long you stay out. And with only 15 months experience you would be at the bottom of the pay scale. Not sure what that is.
    .40 cpm i think.

    You work for Big G? I thought you were at South East Carriers.

    Worked for Southeast for a couple of months in 2014. They decided not to add family coverage on their insurance like they said they would so I came to Big G. Been here 4 years now and love it.

    Just got my second brand new T680 since I have been here.

    Benefits are excellent, which mean a great deal to me.
