Been driving for just over 1 year now. Working for a large megacarrier whom shall not be named. Just pulling dry can. Started training new guys for some extra cash and it’s going well.
But I want more.
I see these guys hauling excavators and large CATs and it looks like interesting work. Where would I get started in that?
Any companies that will train new guys?
Thanks!
Want to learn double drop (Lowboy). Where do I start?

I have read good things about Transport National, if you are in their hiring area. Lots of good info on this thread here:
Transport National Oak Creek WI
Not sure what ever happened to @Gunner75... he doesn’t seem to post anything anymore. -
I’ve seen TMC with double drops, and they’re a ‘training ‘ company - might be worth a call, stating your intention.

TMC is a circus compared to Transport National. They call the RGN fleet their “heavyhaul” fleet, and they have a waiting list of KoolAid drinkers waiting to get on. Just to pull small oversized. That’s ridiculous. TN has no wait, and you will actually pull bigger loads and stretch loads, which require pilot cars.Lepton1, stwik, blairandgretchen and 2 others Thank this.

Might be able to get your feet wet with Hunt Transportation out of Omaha. The have contracts with all the farm and construction equipment manufacturers. I started with them just pulling regular flats and then worked into bigger loads requiring more specialized trailers. Best flatbed outfit I ever pulled for.

Tmc is not a HH fleet. All they do is move cotton pickers and combines. Don’t waste your time with them

I don’t think hunt has anything bigger than 5 axle. If so I haven’t seen it
-
Sorry - should have headed that one up with “Just an uninformed suggestion” . . . !!
Texas_hwy_287 and TripleSix Thank this. -
Amy company in the south east like transport national?
-
Transport National has a yard in Manchester Tennessee.
Then there’s Bulldog in SC and Rinauldo in FL.Lepton1 Thanks this.
