    Chemical tankers are rarely no touch all of the time unless you happen to get on something dedicated. Though on the loading end it usually is. On delivery at chemical plants it is usually no touch too. At other places you may have to hook up hoses and open the valves. Wherein Georgia?
     
    Bonita Nut Thanks this.

    Action Resources (chemical) and Indian River (food grade) both have terminals in Cordele.

    I'm not sure if they are still in business or not, but Williams Dairy Trucking used to be in that area.

    @lual would be of great assistance with this if you listen to him.
     
    Bonita Nut Thanks this.

    I will assume from all the above that by "no touch".....you mean basically that the driver is not involved with the loading or unloading process for the tank's contents.

    Your best bets for that (in Georgia) would likely be Indian River's newer terminal, in Cordele, GA (for you out-of-state readers, that's pronounced, "Kor-deel"...here in GA)....or you could contact Early Trucking Company ("ETC" on their trucks)....based in Arlington, GA:

    Early Trucking Company - EMPLOYMENT

    Both of those will be hauling food-grade (non-hazmat) food products.

    The vast majority of loads with Indian River will be driver non-assisted.

    I don't think either of the above suggestions will get you a "home daily" driving job, however. Maybe home weekly.

    Again -- best to inquire within.

    Not so sure about the same with ETC -- inquire within.

    ETC will very likely be mostly dairy loads.

    Thank you for your reply!
    Yes, no touch meaning basically that the driver is not involved with the loading or unloading process for the tank's contents.
    I would prefer local (home daily), but I will definitely check them out now. :)
    Thank you so much.
