good to know I’ll keep an eye on them, they actually sent a recruiter to my school unfortunately I wasn’t there that day (was getting my permit) I’ll have to ask my teacher or fellow student for the recruiters contact info. Hey never a bad thing to reach out and talk to as many companies as will return your call.

Now as far as what address I used. I did something that I recommend to all otr drivers that do not have an apartment. I got a mailbox with a company called Dakota Post out of Sioux Falls SD. And I also set up residency in SD and use the PO box as my domicile address. Setting up residency in South Dakota is very easy. It requires a one night stay at a hotel or campground and a trip to the DMV. I rolled into town the night before. Checked in at the motel 6. Woke up and headed to BK for breakfast about 9 am then went over to Dakota post and signed up for my mailbox, then off to the DMV to change over my driver's license. I was done before noon, and it cost me less than 500 all in and that is with the most expensive package at Dakota post.
Why did I do this you might ask? South Dakota has no personal income tax which saved me thousands per year over keeping my domicile in my home state of WI.
Honestly if during your time OTR you are often going to want to go see your fiancée in Canada I would not even bother with getting an apartment. Get South Dakota residency, park your car in Fargo and bank your money. Then when you are on home time you can head up north and see your honey. Do that for a year or so, get a nice stack in the bank and then if you want go local and get an apartment but until you go local especially if you're going to head to Canada often your wasting thousands of dollars a year on a place you will rarely ever sleep.

Reason for edit: Added information -
South Dakota is about the easiest state to establish a domicile in. I spent one night at the motel 6 and had them put the Dakota post address on the receipt. That along with the paperwork from Dakota post and my birth certificate, med card, and WI driver's license was all that I needed. They will walk you through the process.
If you choose to stay with New Hampshire residency you can probably find a mail forwarding service in your state or use a virtual service as well. I also had a UPS mailbox in Fargo that I used to have packages shipped to or mail that I actually needed to have in my physical hands. It cost me an extra 25 bucks a month but was a nice luxury for me.
For simplicity’s sake you could just get a UPS or USPS box and remain domiciled in NH if you choose to do it that way.RampageGNS Thanks this. -
