Reefer or dry van only Must allow pets and riders No driver facing cams PC has to be allowed

These are my most important things, I have 6 months experience and would prefer to work for a mid size more than a mega

But im trying to find anything halfway decent that will get me rolling fast

Who do you recommend? Im out of Louisiana but I can stay out 4 to 5 weeks before hometime

Dry Van:

A trailer or truck that that requires no special attention, such as refrigeration, that hauls regular palletted, boxed, or floor-loaded freight. The most common type of trailer in trucking.

Reefer:

A refrigerated trailer.

Why are you looking for another job at 6 months experience? If you've followed the best recommended practices, you would be working at a carrier that you got your CDL from and either contracted for longer than 6 months and or wouldn't be leaving for at least another 6 months.

Logic would dictate that you probably didn't leave on a voluntary basis, meaning that you have issues that are preventing you from being hired.

There's still a lot of job offers out there to well qualified candidates. But it's very bleak if you're not well qualified, meaning a great record, no incidents, no accidents and solid work history.

Is there an option of returning/Staying with your present employer?

What issues do you have on your end and how can you remedy them?

CDL:

Commercial Driver's License (CDL)

A CDL is required to drive any of the following vehicles:

  • Any combination of vehicles with a gross combined weight rating (GCWR) of 26,001 or more pounds, providing the gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of the vehicle being towed is in excess of 10,000 pounds.
  • Any single vehicle with a GVWR of 26,001 or more pounds, or any such vehicle towing another not in excess of 10,000 pounds.
  • Any vehicle, regardless of size, designed to transport 16 or more persons, including the driver.
  • Any vehicle required by federal regulations to be placarded while transporting hazardous materials.
