New york cdl, looking to work for superior carriers

Title says it all. I spoke to a friend whom works for the company. I want in. However when I spoke to superior they made it seem like it could be an issue to work with them from new york?

 

Made it seem, or did the recruiter tell you that they cannot hire you because of where you live?

 

Check with Schneider Bulk. CDL school tuition reimbursement up to $7,000.00

 

I would think it would be a plus to be from NY, a lot of drivers won't go there..

 

NY is a big state. Where do you live?

There is a soft limit of 50 miles for most terminals but there are exceptions. The closest terminals are Springfield MA, Sparta NJ (more of a transload rail yard), Another one off 287 in NJ somewhere, and Pedricktown NJ.

Also driving upstate is a lot easier than driving nyc...

 

Pedricktown runs up to ny multiple times a week... sure Sparta does as well.

OP how far are you from the sparta terminal I bet they would base you out of there. I just started at pedricktown myself loving it so far... most days are running the clock though no overnights yet but to soon to tell....

 

There’s also Carry Transit which is the foodgrade division of Superior located off 287 in Oakland NJ. They are currently hiring so get in an application ASAP.
