Swift,Us Express, Melton, or TMC which do you recommend for a new driver

im going to a company named averitt you may want to look into them being you are in the center of there operating area. but van or flat bed just do research on here I cant recommend either cause I only done van.

 

I loved us express, taught me how to drive in the snow!

 

Heres the thing dude, you trying to get people on here to give you the "best" company wont work out very good. Different companies a lot of different things its not just about the CPM. What you need to do is make a list of what you are looking for in a company and then come back and post what you are looking for in a company and ask for companies that suit that.

for example:
solo or team
home time
average miles a week
type of trailer
there detention/layover pay
a lot of terminals
well maintained tractors
etc

 

the uniform thing is not that big of a deal, first of all as long as you aren't at a customer or terminal, nobody will ever know you aren't wearing it while driving. I mean its only a polo shirt and black slacks its not like some ridiculous outfit. Im in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.

and they have a lot more benefits than just great training and good pay.

 

they have a ****load of service centers is a big seller for me too. I get the impression you are just getting into or out of school so you might not have seen it yet but truck stops and rest stops are crowded as hell especially at night and hard to find parking, with them you can just plan to stop for your 10 at a service center like 4/5 times from what I have seen drivers saying. go on there forum on here and do some reading.

 

Check out maverick or swift flatbed.

Out of you're choices I would go with Milton or swift for flat bed
