    Hello,
    I need some help finding a company that i can lease on with to haul fuel as an owner operator in Phoenix Arizona. I don't mind hauling chemicals too, but have no experience doing so.

    I just moved to Arizona from Illinois. I have almost 3 years of driving experience. One year dry van/doubles, two years hauling fuel. No tickets, no accidents. I just started working with a local company here in Phoenix hauling fuel. I am very interested in buying my own truck. I really enjoy hauling fuel tankers but I'm having a hard time finding companies looking for owner operators to haul fuel. I was hoping KAG would hire me as an owner op but they said that i have to work with them as a company driver and that they have a waiting list. They usually hire owner operators from within their company drivers... Any advice is greatly appreciate. Thanks!

    I have a wife and a two year old daughter. Financially I'm ok. I would own my truck free and clear. Better pay, more home time basically.

    canspam do you need some time home and some snatch? You are one negative dude or dudet who knows. Give advice when someone asked or stick to playing with your stick.

    Most fuel haulers for my knowledge are usally company people. You can buy a franchise like Mcdees, Wendy, etc.
