    US Express
    $5,400 tuition reimbursement
    Split $5,000 Sign on Bonus
    Once teamed the $2,500 pays out over 3 intervals
    $800 each at 3 months, 800 at 6 mo., and 900 each at 9 months

    but it is lower 48 state driving

    Does anyone know of any companies that do teams, that hire from driving schools, and has regional runs?

    If they offer tuition reimbursement, and/or a signing bonus that would be a plus, but a company with regional team runs would be best.

    Thanks

    I've checked with

    PAM Transport
    Lower 48 Only
    ------------------------------------------
    Schneider
    Lower 48 Only
    ------------------------------------------
    Covenant
    Lower 48 Only

    for team driving

    Central Refrigerated does. Celadon also. I would also recommend Kennesaw. You want to go with a good medium sized company. Just large enough to keep you dropping and hooking but small enough to keep it on a personal level with your DM. I thought you were going with Covenant? Sorry, one more to add, Shaffer/Crete is also a good one too.

    A friend of mine runs for them and is claiming they are phasing them out. All the new trucks are standard/manual.

    Luckily they replace all their drivers at least once a year !!!!!

    They'll have time to hire some that can shift !!!

    Central Ref does not have regional team runs. Still checking on the others listed

    edit: not in the right area for Kennesaw being in Texas
    Checking on Shaffer
