Ok, I'll stir the pot. Why no tarp...
QuietStorm, CJndaTruck, TripleSix and 5 others Thank this. -
Based on your location and experience, i would go with the standard suggestion of finding a company that runs both A and B trucks, tell them you want A work but will prove yourself in a B.
pilot trucker Thanks this. -
Companies don't require tarping. Customers do. So, why would a company limit their customer base by not taking tarp loads? Especially with the way freight is right now.

I personally have never heard of a flatbed company advertising no tarp freight.
Maybe a dedicated account.
There are lots of companies that haul steel products with covered wagons but I know of none that take students.pilot trucker Thanks this. -
Side note: tarping is really not that bad.
It's 10 minutes of hard work: taking your tarps out, position them, and then unfolding them. The rest is just bungee work, and that's just as easy if not easier than load securement.LWT104, Truckin2Eat, RERM and 3 others Thank this. -
I wish most of my tarp lds. only took 10 mins to cover the ld.

Lots of companies have no tarp freight.
They're called van haulers, also known as door slammers. And if you have no A exp. like another said, find a company with A and B trucks and prove your worth.whoopNride, pilot trucker, pigeon river trucking and 2 others Thank this. -

Hi. I also would like to run no tarp loads. Also, what companies will pay to have a helper come with me to strap my loads? (Oh yeah, don't wanna do chains, those are too heavy and dirty!)
Also, I'd like to be home every weekend, all the major holidays, mine (and immediate family's) birthdays, and overtime for any hours driven over 40 a week (or 8 a day, I'm flexibile!)
ALSO, truck must have auto EVERYTHING (don't want to exert too much energy!), plush memory foam king sized mattress, massaging seat, side by side refrige/freezer, surround sound home theater with 60" flatscreen, (of course sat, Netflix, PS4!)
Oh, and I want to get PAID! At least like, I dunno, $4.50 a mile....
So, what companies should I be hearing from? (THEY should call ME, I'm not that motivated)
smhvolrunner, IH Truck Guy, Bo Hunt and 32 others Thank this.
