I can't speak for the others.....but Superior has a terminal in Karn's City, PA on PA 268 just south of I-80, about 140 miles from Cleveland. Whether or not you would want to drive that distance or not would be up to you.... But its also possible that there are other tanker companies in the Cleveland area. I did this search and came up with this:

http://www.google.com/search?client=...=Google+Search

But I would recommend doing some in-depth looking as some of the jobs may not be easy to find. Use the phone book, and look at the tankers running around the area...and look to see if those companies have terminals in the Cleveland Metro area.
Thanks Skywalker. I wasnt asking for me but for my cousin. He is coming up on his year with Maverick and wants something different. Your favorable comments about Superior seemed like a place he might like. I'l pass it along.

We appreciate the "update"!! Can you expand on things...like the retirement pay? And possibly when you have time list out the different items and what they are paid? Thanks again!!

Here is the link to their Benefits page: http://www.groendyke.com/hr/benefits.html

Beyond that ....a call to the terminal manager in your area will get you the applicable information on the pay package. Its the one thing they don't have posted on their site, but I can tell you that the drivers with Groendyke that I have talked to have no complaints in that area. 8)
