New driver looking to get hired in Tacoma/Olympia

@Chinatown he will be able to point out companies in your area, as what you mentioned about Every time I find a company that sounds good I do some research and find out that they have a bad reputation. You got to take the good with the bad no trucking company is perfect find what company works for you and fits your criteria. Good luck on your search

 

Im pretty sure TWT out of Spokane has a yard in Tacoma or can at least get you home pretty regularly.

 

What about Gordon?

 

I cut my teeth at May Trucking starting in 2009. It was a great place to start. I hit the road as a newbie on their 48 states refer division. They treated me just fine. I learned the system, got my experience in and moved on after a couple of years.

There is no panacea in trucking. It's ultimately what you make of it.

Spending hours reading reviews on TTR, from mostly disgruntled drivers, has to be done with a grain of salt.

 

Check out Haney Truck Line out of Yakima, WA .
