The Cryo Hauler Thread

Ah ok, cool. It seems like AL is the only company that hires drivers from here, but I keep checking all the producers' websites anyway.

 

So I guess if I saw it right. Airgas gave Landstar a account. Because I think I saw heading east on i80 in Pennsylvania a Landstar truck pulling a airgas tanker

 

Could be a trailer move or just using a contractor to meet a demand.
I don't believe they give accounts to outside carriers.

 

I honestly didn't know what to call it. So just thrown out account

 

Sometimes a competing producer will service a account but most likely with an agreement from a nearby plant/fleet.
We supplied a local Airgas DC with OX for a decade before they built a local plant and we still do tanks for Matheson and AP locally.

 

I am going to KAG Merchant Gas next week for Cryo. I know we are a for hire carrier, but they will get me the training I need. Call and Demand 3 weeks out / 1 week home. I figure I can get a year experience or so with Cryo, and then look for something local to Dallas (I'm in Plano, TX). What's the likelihood of getting a Mon-Fri schedule with weekends off at a producer like Airgas, Air Products, etc.??

Anything you want to add on any potential knowledge you may have on KAG, or other for hire carriers?? I know you didn't work for one....

God Bless
