    I will be graduating from a local CDL training school in the Atlanta area in the next 6 weeks. I am looking for suggestions on companies that will hire grads with no experience that are based in the SE.

    Interested in Flatbed, Tanker or Intermodal.

    Home time is not critical starting out but would like the terminal to be near Atlanta.

    Good training pay and benefits.

    I have no violations in the past 3 years, 1 accident within the past 3 but no citation.

    Help a new driver out.

    Thanks in advance guys.

    Why does the terminal need to be near Atlanta; no place to park a truck near your home?
    Several tanker outfits have terminals in Savannah.
    You didn't ask about reefers, but FFE (Frozen Food Express) has a terminal in Atlanta and hires new cdl graduates. Some of their LTL drivers are making $1500.00 weekly and sometimes more.

    Chinatown, I actually have plenty of space to park a truck at my place. My assumption was that a terminal near your home is ideal.
