Easy way to learn.Tadakatsu and Sapphire_Glitter Thank this. -
Plus for tanker now I see prime pays low -
The northeast really isn’t bad I wouldn’t let that discourage you. Just plan the trip ahead with an atlas and you’re good to go. Thee signage is there for no truck roads or bridge heights and your driving a tanker anyway that is a shorter trailer with no swing and your truck height is low enough to fit under almost everything. The only downside to northeast imo is lack of parking but if you aren’t picky you can get creative.

Every time I've tried to do that in the northeast I've ended up having law enforcement knock on my cab and make me move or someone else finding it out that it's private property. I pretty well gave up parking anywhere but a truck stop.
Not like Utah, Wyoming or many of the western states where if it's off the interstate and your truck isn't blocking something you can park.
Plus I noticed I end up with a much larger weekly paycheck when I'm driving in the western US or Midwest, lowest pay was California and the northeast. Just a different quality of job
In California I usually try to have a full clock so I can get in and out of the state, and with the northeast i try to park early then run my full clock to get out the next day. The only reason I don't like those places is because it takes a lot of special practices to do either and make money off of your normTadakatsu and Gearjammin' Penguin Thank this. -

Your Right! I went there for their training and it was an aweful experience and I have unloaded hundreds of tankers in my past and they failed me. What a joke! They sent me home after 2 weeks of training and I have unloaded hundreds of hazmat tankers!
