    Don't expect to get a straight answer here. But pretty much any OTR carrier that will hire students is worth looking into, call em up, talk to a recruiter.

    I agree... I've found it most helpful to read a lot of the posts and figure out which members are actually helpful, then send them a private message. It's a lot better than weeding through all the gripes and complaints in a post. There are a lot of really helpful people on this site though if you find them.
     
    hculiver Thanks this.

    7 to 14 days out?

    Off the top of my head you are looking at Roehl, Maverick, Schneider and maybe Millis.

    If you are talking 7 to 14 days out as a requirement you can pretty much scratch:
    Prime, Swift, Stevens, Werner, Pam, USA Truck, and US Express.

    The exception of course is if you get into a dedicated type of situation and of course LTL or foodservice, but based on your size you can probably scratch foodservice.
