    Tucson is rough but stay away from that Heartland job unless you get desperate . Also ,Amazon opens soon so hopefully that will bring better options .

    There is a yard hostler job available right now at the Home Goods dc working for TCI. Decent money as you'll make overtime every week .This is very very fast paced but if you apply now you'll probably get hired asap as they need drivers tucson.craigslist.org/trp/d/tci-is-looking-for-class-hostlers/6806618807.html
    Home Goods DC
    7000 S Alvernon

    Not the best fuel tanker job but it's easy to get hired and you'll make about $50k being home every day.

    YRC freight is hiring right now but I'm pretty sure it's a casual driver. (Probably do more dock work than driving)


    Superior Bulk(day cab)
    Not sure the exact address but they're up in Marana and hiring right now. Call
    928-821-8782 ask for Dave

    CTI (day cab) Always hiring !!
    11105 N Casa Grande hwy
    (Marana area) Not the best but it's a job

    I don't know how you feel about self driving trucks but Tusimple is hiring test drivers right now for the testing . Can't post the address on a public forum but they're close to the airport

    Frito Lay (Not sure if they're hiring)
    They're right off the the interstate at Miracle Mile & I-10 . SAIA is in the same neighborhood if you want to stop by there too .

    Then of course you have the beverage/food companies that always seem to be hiring

    US Foods\Sysco,Hensley,Pepsico,Shamrock foods,System Services of America,Swire CocaCola,CoreMark,etc.

    Tucson Transport (sleeper truck)is hiring but very low pay and you layover in California one night per trip .I think they're something like .25 cpm + 10cpm per diem (yikes!)

    Legend Trans out of Yuba City (sleeper truck)pulls out of the HomeGoods Dc . They have runs from Tucson to the various stores in California.

    If you want to stay local, you might consider being a fuel truck driver for Granite Construction. I like GC since they do such a dandy job constructing quality asphalt roads.

    As for the mines, you'll have to see what ASARCO and Phelps Dodge has to offer.

    If you don't mind pulling reefer, there's Manuel Huerta 60 miles south of Tucson in Nogales.
     
    Trucker0923 Thanks this.
