    I came to this website a few months ago asking about Tanker jobs, but I wasn't able to renew my hazmat because I needed the background check. While I am waiting to get that done, I am looking for trucking jobs that pay at least $1000 a week. $750 on a bad week. I am from Columbia Ms. I still can not do flatbed until I have surgery on my shoulders. Most companies I talk to only offer OTR. Since I worked most of my time locally, some of these companies do not count that as OTR. Basically what I am asking, is for you to post your company and about how much you make a week.

    I was actually going to call Great Plain Transport tomorrow. I am not sure if I meet this requirement -One year or 125,000 miles verifiable - I will see if K&B is hiring in my area because I have never seen them when I search for jobs. But the pay looks good from both companies.

    Don’t know about Great Plaines but I worked for K&B and you will make money if you are ready to put in the work. But Great Plains must be good to otherwise @Chinatown wouldn’t have recommended it to you

    How is it at K&B. What is home time like. How many miles do you run a week?

    If your psp is in good shape magnum Ltd would probably hire you. A grand a week take home is pretty easy to make here.

    I don’t work there anymore, but they pay pretty well. Their home time is just like any other company out there. You get 1 day off for every 7 days you spend on the road.

    You should contact some of the furniture manufacturers, just north of you. United, Ashley, are steady busy. Decent pay. Maybe they can also refer you to some other Carriers, that do work for them. Averitt may have something close to you, not necessarily Local though.
