I'm researching a career in trucking and I need some basic info. I have nothing but the highest respect for all you cross country people (as the USA would shut down without you) and I know that I cannot do it. What is the deal with "local" only jobs, that is "home every night" "9 to 5" type jobs? Are they out there, harder to get, pay less (I would assume less pay).I had a friend many years ago (lost touch) who drove for Marshalls clothing stores in MA. He did his run then went home, loved it. Thanks in advance for steering me straight (sorry, couldn't resist).

Amount of local only jobs?
Hello all,
I'm researching a career in trucking and I need some basic info. I have nothing but the highest respect for all you cross country people (as the USA would shut down without you) and I know that I cannot do it. What is the deal with "local" only jobs, that is "home every night" "9 to 5" type jobs? Are they out there, harder to get, pay less (I would assume less pay).I had a friend many years ago (lost touch) who drove for Marshalls clothing stores in MA. He did his run then went home, loved it. Thanks in advance for steering me straight (sorry, couldn't resist).
