But then again, I am enjoying flatbedding and ovesize loads.
Good luck. I think you will find that Trimac is pretty much at or near the top of list with respect to bulk companies.

Here in Alberta ( western Canada ), Trimac is huge. But I'm more interested in how they are in the US in general, and western PA in particular, since I plan to move there in the near future.
Trimac might be the top of a list in Canada, simply because Canada is home....but ... they are not on my list of prospective employer's.
Trimac is a "Mid" level ompany. They are ok(there are better training companies) for getting training from...they are ok for getting starting experience from. Their wages are average, as are their bennies. Trimac does not base their wages on a national scale, they base them at the "local" scale. If the local scale is $13.50 an hour to start, Trimac usually tries to operate below that.
Also..here in the US, Trimac is more of an "Association" of small companies than one actual operationg company...each terminal is a small "fleet operator" operation.
There was a guy on here a few months ago, whom had started with Trimac in Reserve Louisiana..haven't seen any recent posts from him, stating his experiences so far.
