    Don't pull containers for them. But I do pull containers. I see those guys in and out of the port home every day drivers, and drivers that stay out for a night or two. It's a guy stay in my area that has been pulling for them for a good while and seems to be doing good financially. A plus with Old Dominion they have alot of they own chassis so that's less downtime and time in port looking for a chassis.

    Is Old Dominion lease purchase deal a decent choice and could a driver make a decent wage still running 1 load (I understand it's slow right now)? I'm waiting on my paperwork to be processed by corporate right now. I have another company I'm considering also. Just trying to get as much info on them as possible to make a good decision. Thanks!

    Do you know how much more they pay for Haz-Mat loads?
