Reputable carriers that run a lot of New England freight?

the only mega carrier i see on my end of 95 on a regular basis is prime. i heard they got a contact with McCains. the others like swift, shnieder, jb or any of those guys, i only see once in awhile. as for them not hiring out of maine, that`s a good thing. try hooking up with a company that is out of ne, best chance to get to ne.

 

hartt transportation out of bangor me, never heard anything negative. google truck driving jobs in me, you`ll find a bunch.

 

I live a semi-decent rock toss from Exit 75 & travel I-95 to & from the Portland area quite a bit.

Prime, Schieder, & Western Express are the 3 "Most Seen" of the megas north of Portland that regularly hire newbes.... Werner & CR England seem to be around once in a while... but not much.... quite a few Primes I've seen are pulling Wal-Mart trailers... I assume in/out of Lewiston (Exit 80)

Once you have some experience options get better (Hartt, ConWay, NEMF & a buttload of other Regional carriers).

(If you can avoid them I'd stay away from WE... they're on the MSP's "excriment list")

 

Don't know if you are interested but Central Ref used to do some freight up there. Personally I would look for local trucks you see driving around. Keep your eye on Craigslist, I have seen a lot of good gigs posted on there.

 

Land Air is up in VT all the time, I went to HS with the Grandson of the Origional own of the company (suposidly)

I dont know much about the company other then they dont hire new drivers...
