New CDL driver Tanker vs flatbed

I'd go with Tidewater. You'll always have good paychecks with about any tanker company.
For me, tankers was the best move I ever made in my career.

 

Tanker, tanker, although I'm bias having never done flatbed work. But I did do lots of dry van stuff from OTR mega to fedex line, to local ltl,tanker work beats them all. Been in it for over four years now, and hauled everything from oil,chemicals, fuel, to now cryo and I love it.

 

I have been pulling tankers for ten years and some. I love it. Most of the loads are drop and hook in my case. And in the occasional live load/unload situation more and more is done by plant loaders. No touch. Gravy. I'm spoiled.

 

Another tanker vote

 

@RevKev maybe can help.

 

I think if I would be starting over again, I'd start out in hazmat tanker. That's just because I'm getting bored with flatbed.
