not trying to be an a-- but need just a little more info what type of trk where can you run all 48 or local only what area are you from and do you or are you willing to carry big enough insurance for high value loads this will help in giving you some starting places well your looking you may want to look at fedex customs crictacal exipideted freight i know they use straight job trks usaully i see them on 81 and 40 these trks are around 24-30 feet with sleepers on them i would think they maybe teams but not sure i do no that they are not fedex owned they are private contractors with their own trks hope this helps.

i,m not sure who you need to get a hold of but i have a freind up here in ny he has 3 trks on for us postal service they do the more remote areas of new york mostly were full loads arent going or hard to get into with trk n trl combo but he is making good money doing it and his trks are home everday they run at night usaully 200-300 miles round trip he also puts some trks on with the produce markets as most of them here dont have their own trks mainly because of the season beinging short its cheaper for them to hire a trk in your area i would try the same alot of produce comes from the philly area around peir 52 not sure what that distance would be but it might work out.
