Try TANKER

I know its not FLAT, VAN, REEFER but it is a cool deal... RAW materials CHEMICAL tank is the most money. But food grade is ok altough it pays a little less.

Companies hiring

CARRY TRANSIT (owned by SUPERIOR CARRIERS our food grade div)

others

MILLER TRANSPORT
INDIAN RIVER
BYNAM
OAKLEY
HIGHWAY TRANSPORT

They are all hiring I can tell you SUPERIOR CARRIERS is owned by
SBL (SUPERIOR BULK LOGISTICS) they own SUPERRIOR and CARRY and own the BULK DIVISION where we do haul flour, etc and have a few PNEUMATIC trailers very few and are dedicated . the bulk division also runs RAIL, and PORT freight also

I will give you some pay for SUPERIOR CARRIERS (chemical)

20 unload
10 bunk pay each night
15 border cross (paid in and out)

hrly pay 13.34

GREAT atomsphere and GREAT people ... they care about their drivers if you want some more info just PM me I am just passing on information .. But remember this is tank so it is a different world but I would never do anything else.

TURNOVER % YEARLY

SUPERIOR = 19%

CARRY = 23%

* includes retirement, transfer divisions (food grade to chemical), death, fired, quit, ***

if not included I would say just by quitting i would say it would be less than 5% for both got folks that switch divisions allot and retirment has hit them hard lately so number are up a bit ....

anyway I sound like a recruiter I AM NOT I am a COMPANY driver for SUPERIOR ...

Let me know if you want any more info I dont know much about the other companies listed above...

You can also try

BULKOMATIC
TRANSPORT SERVICES
Q CARRIERS

but this is the way to go unless you like bumping docks and sitting for free these job openings in the pay for everything you do jobs dont last long so get in while the hiring is good....

Turn over as a whole for all BULK / TANK outfits are a least half industry average and that is the WORST of the bunch ...

But to each his/her own ...

Have a good relationship with my dispatcher, and we were talking the other day, and he says we are hiring. No layoffs planned, considering we posted a 4th qtr profit for 2008

What can you tell me about Carry Transit?

Mostly about the hometime and running areas...

Right now I work for a short haul company, just doing the great lake states, with a 5/2 work week. Plus I only live 30 minutes from the Vassar terminal.

thanks
