    Especially during winter time when roads get shutdown.

    I'm interested in shipex, but my 18 months wont be til January, so gotta be patient and wait it out still lol. Do yall run through Savannah, GA? I'm wondering if they hire from there. This sounds like a amazing company to work for and checks off all the boxes I want in a new company. Safe Travels!

    It never hurts to try. Rules are made to be bent, especially when it pertains to putting butts in seats.

    We don't run through Savannah necessarily but pretty sure they hire from there. We run to Gaffney and Rock Hill SC and Orlando Fl a lot which would put you in the vicinity to run you through. Yeah there are lot of drivers that seem to like it here myself included. The pay and bonus is just easier way to make a living at trucking. :D

    True, If you are new to trucking this is the kinda place where you go after you get your experience in.

    Aug. 28th is my first full year with my company, so I'll put a application in on my anniversary date and see what comes out of it. Currently I'm on a dedicated account and home every weekend, but dont mind going OTR for salary pay since right now my current pay is a roller coaster and not as consistent as it use to be. Thanks for the replies! I seen a few of yall on 70 going west bound this today between Cincinnati and Columbus Haha, really clean trucks.

    Yesterday went to the shop to fix my pigtail support system. About a week ago it got hung up on the reefer while turning around and snapped it. Air lines and electrical ok just needed a new spring bracket that holds it up off the deck. Got it fixed in like 3 mins.

    Then my truck came up on the radar needing service. Which was good to get it out of the way sense I had the time. They replaced all the filters, oil change and grease. Now I'm road ready.
