    Looking at their website it looks like I may be out of their hiring area, I will send them an e-mail to find out. Thanks for the lead.

    I dont think your gonna be able to take your dog while training. So what are you gonna do with her/him?. Its gonna take at least 4 to 6 wks for training. Try Schneider also. Good Luck !

    If you are confident in your abilities Roehl or schneider they expect more from you can be washed out.

    A friend who is moving will watch her until I finish training. 8 weeks after I start he is moving to Hawaii.

    Melton Truck Lines and Con-Way truckload both have pet policies. I don't work for either one, but according to their website they allow dogs.
    U.S. Xpress allows dogs also. H.O. Wolding does too if I'm not mistaken.

    I work for Knight out of the Eagan terminal and the three terminal personnel are excellent. No problem getting miles and as it is a small terminal, everyone is very friendly.

    Of course, it is still Knight, but it is miles beyond Werner from what I read here at TTT. Tell'em 352112 sent ya. Call them and drop by the yard, see what you think.
     
    jac714 Thanks this.

    That's why I recommend that you stay away from the megas. The money is in the Northeast. Don't let them pay you peanuts for running the Northeast.

    US Xpress allows pets, 1,700 watt invertor, a rider & most important.... Let's you idle the truck when it's above 70 degrees.

    They announced today a pay increase for solo drivers:
