    That's where I'm at now I live in Philly so maybe ill get more port loads ?

    Also if anyone can answer if I were to get my hazmat or twic card after joining up with tmc is it hard to get them to pay ya for the bonus or adding it onto your profile ?

    I live in Philly as well. depending on what week you joined there would be a 20% chance I'd be your trainer. I never got a port load out of philly, but who knows. Most of my fright pays really well so I can't complain.

    To get twic:
    You can make an appointment online, or just show up.
    Go to the Port authority building...its right off 95 exit 25. (for Philly residents) 3460 N Delaware Ave, Philadelphia, PA
    You need to do 2 meetings. One is to set every thing up. Once they let you know its done you need to go there again to pick it up.

    To get Hazmat:
    Take the test at your local DMV (read the manual for hazmat on the penndot website first.)
    Go to a state police office (they will give you a list of them at Penndot) to get finger printed.
    Once they finish your background check you will get a new license in the mail with the new endorsement

    While your there getting hazmat you might as well take the test for doubles/triples and tanker. Those are only 5 bucks a piece. They wont be valuable for tmc, but you have um if you ever need um in the future.

    To get the bonus points with TMC (not direct pay bonus, depends on how many points you have) just call your Fleet Manager and it will show on your next snapshot. (snapshot is when they re evaluate your %)
