Hey guys, so I have been around the forum before and have worked for Prime Inc and really enjoyed it. I had to stop due to a medical condition which, unfortunately is made worse by the lifestyle of being a trucker. So, sadly I cannot be a trucker any longer for my health. However, I am starting school at a community college to become a Diesel Mechanic so I can still be around the trucks. I enjoy working on my own car so I figure trucks should be fun too. I currently live in southern California, but am looking at moving to Arizona when I am done with school to get a job. I want to work for a trucking company with a large fleet. I have considered going back to Prime but their terminals are in Salt Lake City, UT Springfield, MO and Pittston, PA. What are some companies that have actual terminals in Arizona and not just a drop yard? I found a couple but want to find out what companies I could potentially work for when I am done.

Terminal:

A facility where trucking companies operate out of, or their "home base" if you will. A lot of major companies have multiple terminals around the country which usually consist of the main office building, a drop lot for trailers, and sometimes a repair shop and wash facilities.

Try looking online in and around the Arizona city you wanna move to. Or just search diesel mechanic jobs Phoenix. Should yield results. Also seek help from that school you're attending.
