    Looking at moving to the Knoxville area in the summer of 2020
    -currently running northeast regional dry van
    Will have about 18-20 months experience by then
    -any suggestions on companies to look into in that area?
    -would switching to tanker or something for local snag me a little extra cashola?

    Knoxville is either Oak Ridge Nuclear or one giant 40 mile strip of retail.

    There is one person who would know.

    @Chinatown he is our resident Guru with that kind of information you seek.
