    No it's not a death sentence. Cut that out, man. Ain't nobody asked for that. Jesus man. Memphis has crime. I don't understand why the crime has to be pointed out with Memphis. I used to do local delivery in Nashville and Italy just as out of control but nobody is talking about it. It ain't necessary for real.

    Anyway, the crime in Memphis isn't important. What's important is, if you're willing to do flatbed check out this company:

    Terminals | PI&I MX

    Also, if you get the tanker endorsement, take a look at Opies Transport

    Opies Transport- Home

    PI and I has a terminal in Memphis and you could get a local or regional job with them. I believe Opies does too but I can't remember off top. Call them up and see if they could meet your hometime needs.

    I'd call Marten Transport also. They do the Walmart dedicated routes in that area. They operate out of New Albany, MS DC.

    Armstrong Transportation

    I used to know a guy that drove these guys. He was getting home multiple times a week if he had to leave the state. He'd travel to Indiana and back or to Dallas and back. Then he went local for them..days were long, of course but he liked it. They are under the radar, but this could be a good fit

    Perimeter Transportation, LLC

    One more that falls under the radar in Memphis. Since you live in Millington, that'll work to perfection. They advertise home weekly and a need for local drivers.
