    Freymiller is good.
    All those I listed are good for new CDL grads.
    Some websites may have "experience required", so ignore that and apply anyway; the website isn't up to date.
    Best wishes to you and your classmates. Good career you have chosen.

    Not positive about this, but I think Waggoners has some type of contract hauling sprinter vans from a factory in SC . Those would be hauled on flatbed trailers.
    Here's from the website:
    Waggoners Trucking is looking for Company Drivers to Join our Ladson, SC Team

    Apply Online and Reserve Your Seat Today!

    We deliver Sprinter Vans from Ladson, SC to dealer destinations across 2/3 of the United States!

    Our Company Drivers enjoy excellent earning potential:
    •Average over $60,000 per year
    •Top Drivers over $80,000 per year

    On this freight they pay milage for each vehicle on the trailer. Something like .27 cpm per vehicle.
    Two sprinter vans on the trailer would be .54 cpm

    This company does several different types of trucking such as delivering equipment and supplies to oil fields and other types of stuff.

    Congrats! The first few months of your driving career will be stressful as you learn on the road what you didn't learn in school. Just push through it. It gets much easier after a few months. Good luck :)

    Chinatown didn't mention a really good company in your area, Hardy Brothers out of Siloam. They are a good outfit. Teams run to the west coast and back. Solo runs available too. Check em out.
     
    Sti400 Thanks this.
