    Hello,

    I’m a 22 year old trucker and need help finding an otr company. My wife is leaving on deployment with the military and want to get rid of the apartment to save money for a home. I have a year and a half of driving experience and a German shepherd.

    I live in Minnesota but I’m not picky if a company is willing to work with me that’s good enough. I don’t have any flatbed experience and I have limited reefer experience. I’ve hauled mostly van and have all my endorsements.

    I highly recommend especially being from Minnesota. Halvor Lines. Pets are allowed with trainees on day one, and passengers are allowed after 90 days.
