Stand no chance being hired out of South Florida?

Where in Florida do you live?

 

South Florida is a freight black hole.
Lots coming in and nothing coming out.

 

If you got nothing, Try Cypress Trucking Line, but @Chinatown is the man you wanna ask.

 

Lots of reefer freight coming out of the Everglades. That doesn't help though unless you're pulling reefers.

Why not go to trade school and become an electrician or a plumber or another of the trades that have huge shortages of people in this country? You will do a whole lot better than being a truck driver and won't have somebody watching every thing that you do.

 

I've read this many times, and find it baffling. The supermarket produce section is full of Flordia citrus, salad greens, and more. I'd think there would be a steady stream of reefers heading north.

 

There is and most are deadheading, a few chose to haul those $1.30 a mile loads.

 

I was one of them for years. Company driver though. Never stuck in South Florida or anywhere in Florida, waiting for a load. I didn't have the worry of what the loads paid by the mile, because I chose to be a company driver.

 

Do not base your future on the B.S. that you read on social media platforms. Pick up the phone, go to truck stops, local repair shops, produce markets and shippers and receivers and observe and ask questions!
