Default Looking to move West

Want to consider Montana, Wyoming, maybe Colorado. Want to work for a small to midsize company where they know me by name.

I only have a years experience with vans, no hazmat or doubles, etc.

A small family operation would be great.

Ideas anyone on that area of the country?

Hill Brothers out of Nebraska wants you to have 2 years exp. or one year exp. and driving school . So if you went to driving school , your in luck , there a good company. They do a lot of Colorado .

Jim Palmer Trucking out of Montana isn't bad , they require one year exp.
