Want to avoid the 'Starter' companies...

Gordon was my first choice. Unfortunately they reduced their hiring area so they won't consider me.

 

Thought you lived in Washington

 

There is plenty written in here about knight.
They have some interesting hometime policies but the pay is quite low.
Equipment not so good..

 

I also tried Knight. I was going to start a new thread about this but I guess I can vent here. I have calls in to Knight, Navajo and a couple others. All I get is voice mail and no return calls.
That is recruiters in my area. WTF? I thought there was a shortage of drivers.

low22, this might be a common problem.

tow614, Great avatar!

 

Try Central Oregon Truck Company and Watkins & Shepard.
Watkins & Shepard has 3 terminals in WA.

 

W&S is a good company

Ha-ha. Put some salve on that itch, nail down that local job. You'll be way, way ahead.

Long haul's not going away. It'll be there.

And a rude awakening.
