Does Prime Have Any Terminals in Florida?

On your profile, you give the name of DerekAnthonyCDL. Is Derek Anthony your real name or a pen name?

God bless every American and their families! God bless the U.S.A.!

 

As far as hiring out of Florida, depends on the location you are talking about. I know in North Florida where I am, they are hiring for reefer division. Your best bet will be to call up a recruiter and ask them. Or maybe one of the drivers can let you know once you post a location.

I'll let one of the drivers answer the terminal/drop yard. I'd only be repeating what is on their site...no first hand knowledge if they are still in the same places.

 

I have talked to many Prime Lease Operators in past few weeks. Every single one was happy. But after them learning more wish they bought their own rig. Take it however you like. Just relay their message to me. I see their trucks down here in Florida daily. So know loads get down here. GL in Future.

 

We do haul loads into Florida, but the problem is that there aren't a lot of loads coming in or out of there. That makes the hometime thing iffy... you're OK if you aren't going to insist on exact dates. You'd have to drop your trailer in Auburndale- although Pierson and Miami are possibilities, and security may insist you leave the tractor there as well because of theft problems. You're most likely going to have to arrange transportation to Lauderdale, certainly in the case of Auburndale.

 

I live in Florida the issue in Florida is that rates out of Florida stink. That is true for all freight out of Florida not just prime. If you team aka train you can do ok out for fl. If you go company you can always get out. We are the main carrier for tropicana so u can get a load out but as all carries realize the rates stink. But for company who cares. So with prime getting in and out of Florida is no problem. Even solo you can unload in Miami then drag flowers to Pierson so teams like me can pick me up there. In my experience. If you give them 10 days notice Florida home time is no issue.

 

To better answer your question if u want to visit family in ft lauderdale you will drop trailer in Miami. If you have no place safe to park tractor you can at 595 truck stop
