    Preferably Virginia,I would probably be willing to go as far south as North Carolina or even Georgia if it's a good enough company,but I want to stick with companies that will keep me southeast regional and can get me home.I live near Richmond,but I don't want to work for Abilene.

    Just know that any regional work really means the freight is shipped out of that region.

    My bad Driver I didnt read you didnt like the only company I mentioned. Surely one of the big companies would have something. Youre kinda in the middle of where regions split though. Good Luck

    maybe @OLDSKOOLERnWV can throw a few names out there for you~ look at NC and GA threads (via search engine) because MANY peeps here have been looking in that vicinity.....and posting their results.
    Best Wishes, God Bless.

    I know a company that you would get home on weekends and maybe a night in the week but you run alot of northeast as nd they run heavy(75,000 to 79,999lbs gross)

    I made around $45,000 a year with them and they have a drop yard over on holly springs ave in Richmond
