if Superior would take you, that's probably the best bet, they are a great company..
Their closest location to me is a 2 hour drive. I doubt they will hire me.
well, you would probably only be driving there every 2 weeks or so if you want to go national. it wont hurt to call them, you arent by any chance close to the Chattanooga terminal are you? if so, I have a name for you to talk to.
I am in Northeast PA so it looks like Rahway, NJ is the closest to me. I will give them a call once I graduate, thanks for the tip! |

Superior has a terminal in Chattanooga? I've been talking with the Morrow, GA TM about hiring on with them when I get my Class A next week. But they may not have any open trucks. I figured Augusta would be the next closest terminal - which I'm not opposed to considering - but if Chattanooga is a possibility they are way closer to me. Their website doesn't list a terminal there. Is that a new location?
I think maybe they were talking about CTL..... I know of no Superior Carriers terminal in Chattanooga....unless they very recently opened one and forgot to tell the "system fleet" about it. Even if it was a "Trans-Flo" location we would know about it....or even a Carry Terminal..... so I think he was referring to CTL.
The closest locations to Chattanooga are: Morrow, GA (Atlanta), Mount Juliet, TN (Nashville), Louisville, KY, Cincinnati, OH, Kingsport, TN. |

I called and asked him, he said Rusty told him he could park at the Tri mac tank wash in Chattanooga, only because he worked for them for many years and they want him back.. |

Thanks for the info Skywalker. As of today I've earned my Class A and I have been talking with Rusty out of Morrow. He says he'll do what he can to put me in a truck but I suspect that he simply won't have an empty seat. Per your earlier suggestion I'll explore the possibility of working out of the Augusta terminal if they have a seat available. Chattanooga would've been much closer if there was a terminal there since I'm in Marietta.
I'd love to drive for Superior but if that's not in the cards I'll be looking at other tanker companies who will take students. I know that there are few choices but hopefully persistence will pay off in the long run. |
