Looks like we will be very close to being neighbors!

 

If you want to move "up" in the world..,there is a place in So Mn called Le Suer Cheese,local hauling,milk of course.,the city has the same name as the company I just mentioned..

 

Most local gigs want at least a year or two OTR experience due to ins reasons

 

As with ANYTHING...,it never hurts to call and find out...The place I mentioned was going to take me (although a long time) ago,with NO experience..

 

Try this site. It lists the Trucking companies in the state of WI, as well as the rest of the country.
Green bay, Wisconsin Trucking Companies - Transport Freight Shipping Service Companies

 

Roehl was talking about doing a dairyland fleet for awhile,not sure if that went anywhere but it might be worth a look. They also used to run a dedicated run from Minneapolis to Chicago with 2 drivers. One guy would pick in Chicago and relay around Portage and the other would take it to Minneapolis, reload and relay back in Portage. Good luck to ya, I'm sure you'll find something.

 

Yes, as at OTR company driver, they pay for the fuel etc, and you pay for your personal stuff.

Don't think about a lease until you have some time as a company driver. Leasing is the same thing as being in business for yourself. You need to understand the biz before you jump into something like that.

The short version is that it's like leasing a car, and you have a chance to be in biz for yourself. Some companies will try to push you into a lease right away, and others will require you to be a company driver for awhile. There are a few members on here that are L/O's and doing well for themselves. Injun is one that I know of for certain. She's a L/O with Swift.
