    And none of those companies exist where I live. Plus I'm not trying to work for less than 30k a year.

    Some drivers like P&D and enjoy it. Some drivers think flatbed is work, but I don't. I enjoyed securing loads and wrapping them like a Christmas package, making them look good.

    If you think city P&D or flatbed are work you've never worked.

    P&D is "Pickup & Delivery"
    A line haul driver, for example, brings a set of double trailers to the terminal and unhooks. The P&D drivers deliver all those individual packages to the customers throughout the city and at the same time pick up packages that are destined for other cities. These packages that were picked up go back on the double trailers and the line haul drivers take them to another terminal in another city and the same thing happens again.
