Carry has their main yard in Bridgeview, IL, which is where Baby Bullseye works out of. As for locations near you, they also have yards in Lafayette, IN, Dayton, OH, Vassar, MI, and Decatur, IL. May I suggest you ask Baby Bullseye, as she's been there for almost six months now. I can give you all of their pay and benefit info, but she can give you true driver feedback on the company. I can assure you of this though..she is extremely happy there , and barring an extreme condition of emergency I doubt she'll ever leave (much like Skywalker and I on here at Superior, and several close friends who also are employed by Superior Bulk Logistics).

As for Superior, we have nearby yards in Markham, IL (South Chicago), Kankakee, IL, Westville, IN (O/O only), Cincinnatti, OH, Louisville, KY.

Just as a rule of thumb remember that the company prefers you to live within a 100-mile distance of a yard (sometimes closer).

Is the pay and benefits changed since your tanker post? If so and you have the time I would welcome a update.
