STRAIGHT TALK ABOUT THIS ACCOUNT

This is Northeast ramp work. The freight is no-touch and the customer keeps us out of NYC, which is the single biggest thing drivers ask about in this market. The tradeoff is weather — this account runs unless conditions and roads are genuinely unsafe. Northeast winters are part of the job here. If you're comfortable with that, you get home daily, you don't touch freight, and the schedule is predictable.
