I run my family's trucking company. We haul fuel to bulk plants, shrimp boats, fuel docks, convenient stores, truck stops, etc. My father is also in partnership in a vacuum trucking company. There is a high demand for drivers in the industry and it pays pretty well. Work can be very hectic at times though. Like right now, there is no power at the refinery I'm pulling from. Got 3 drivers sitting in the parking lot, been sitting there for 2 hours, waiting for it to open back up. Alot of oilfield people want there stuff that day even if they called at 12pm and they are in Houma. Lot of last minute stuff comes up. Get ready for that. Sometimes you will sit around for 2-3 days with nothing to do then next thing u know its balls to the wall for a month. Make sure you get all your endorsements. Haz Mat, Tanker, etc. Most companies want experience drivers, especially with tractor/tanker or vacuum trailers Good luck man. You get your CDL and all your endorsements let me know, and I'll help u find something.
