    Might check with CTL.

    Maverick and McElroy have some type of deal for weekends at home.

    Maybe bite the bullet & look at food service companies; lots of that regional & local; plus the weekly pay is very good. Companies like U.S. Food Service, MBM, Greatwide.

    If you have tanker endorsement, check Florida Rock & Tank; several terminals in the SE and that's where they usually stay.

    What city & state you live in?
     
    Chuckie86 Thanks this.

    There's one in Jacksonville, FL (I'll try to find the name of it for you)

    Well, can't find the name; check the heavy haul thread. Heavy Haul Trucking Forum

    he doesn't want to do OTR but he wants to do regional.

    what's the difference? and that's kind of tough to do. they both go hand in hand.

    Time and distance away from home that'd be the difference never know when I might be needed on the home front with my personal life situation and don't want to be cross country if the time arises been there done that and my wife went thru some hard times while I was on my way home for a week regional companies have a customer base that would be easier to get back in the area within a day or two in most cases
