When I worked for them it was mainly dry van with a start up reefer division.

I don't think you have the right company, from what I know, Knight only pulls refeer's and dry van, at least that what their website says.

Not to be sarcastic, they also list household goods and tanker. If you visit their website, only offer dry van and reefer.

No, no, and no to the folks jumping all over this man. There is a Knight out of WA that has over 100 trucks pulling flats to the Midwest and back. This is not the Knight Transportation also known as Red Swift.

I was in the Sapp Brothers in Denver last year and a USExpress flatbed loaded with boats parked next to me.

Never seen one of those before.....

When I was still with knight, out of SLC. We had a few flatbeds in our yard. It was an O/O who was friends with someone iin knight and had leased a few of his trucks. It may have been a trial by fire to see what happens. Last I heard thought, they still were breaking in there reefer side and with the buy out of roads-west, intergrating that side in as well.

Have a safe trip
