Tampa is hiring for a road driver. Any idea how many road drivers Tampa has and where they run too? Lay downs or meets? What GPD is Tampa? Thanks in advance.
See I was looking at this too. Tampa, Jacksonville and Miami are all looking for Road Drivers but Orlando never is. How can they all be running to Orlando but Orlando is never adding Road Drivers?My guess is as a bottom guy you will work the dock, run to the hub in Orlando, work the dock and back. A simple call to the terminal will answer all the questions about the position.
Tampa to Orlando could easily double turn. You probably could push a double turn from Ocala to Orlando. Florida has had a history of plenty coming into the state but not much exiting. Jacksonville and Miami ports export contribute to the imbalance.See I was looking at this too. Tampa, Jacksonville and Miami are all looking for Road Drivers but Orlando never is.

tampa has road runs to orlando & valdosta,ga road runs at night. Orland is a 150mile r/t shuttle run with dock work. you also can do clearwater and ocala via"s. All runs are night,they have no day runsTampa is hiring for a road driver. Any idea how many road drivers Tampa has and where they run too? Lay downs or meets? What GPD is Tampa? Thanks in advance.
all road openings in orlando will be taken internally by city drivers. As it is, its like a 13-14yr wait to get to the road. orlando road runs go south to west palm beach,hollywood,miami & tampa bids. We also go go to valdosta,ga, poulan,ga and other georgia runs from 558-562 mile runs. we have more day runs than at night now,plus we run turnpike double 48's to mia,wpb, and hollywood tooSee I was looking at this too.

I know this is an old thread, but I am revisiting it and looking to gather info on the Orlando, FL terminal. How is it being a road driver there? I am only looking to transfer there as a road driver.. do they normally grab transfers for road or is there a waiting list for city guys looking to go over currently? Any good valid information would be appreciated

orlando fills there road drivers from within the city division. there are so many city drivers that want to go road. nobody will be able to transfer to the road in orlando unless you dove tail in due to freight movementSee I was looking at this too.

orlando has or had NO layoffs whatsoever..They prolly just laid off a bunch of Orlando drivers that have been there for years. Then keep guys on the city board that have six months in. Typical FedEx.
Yikes looks ugly out there. Thanks for the info driverorlando has or had NO layoffs whatsoever..
Orlando is like that for many industries. They transfer to die down there :)Yikes looks ugly out there. Thanks for the info driver
