Good day, I have a question. I'm a current lease operator at prime on the reefer side. Almost going on 2 years with prime and about 5 years otr experience. 5 years getting little tired of reefer and I saw tanker. The job description I love and seems little more physical work involved which I like. I was wondering can a reefer driver transfer to tanker. If so can I take my current lease truck with me, it's a condo or I will have to start over a lease with a different truck? Thanks

[@PRIMEINCTRUCKING]

Great question! Yes, you have the option to switch divisions. Being able to switch your current lease truck to Tanker is determined on a case by case basis depending on the term of your truck/contract. To find out if this is a possibility for your lease, give Success Leasing a call at 800-491-1240.

@@PRIMEINCTRUCKING Does prime try to keep new drivers away from five boroughs of New York until experience dictates?

[@PRIMEINCTRUCKING]

We do go into the boroughs in Tanker, but it's very, very rare. If you would have any concerns, you would just want to communicate that with your Fleet Manager if it did come up.

Have you guys expanded into California with the tanker division?

[@PRIMEINCTRUCKING]

From my understanding we do not have tanker opportunities in California at this time. We do have other divisions to check out in your area, including our intermodal division near Los Angeles.

Does Prime Tanker hire out of Houston, Tx?

[@PRIMEINCTRUCKING]

That would be a question for our recruiting department. It does look like we only hire out of the north east portion of Texas for the tanker division, but we may have extended it since I checked last.

Any tanker work for Salt Lake City? I have my tanker endorsement and doubles and triples. 3 years experience with tanker and 2 years flat bed. Looking for a career switch from IT work.

[@PRIMEINCTRUCKING]

Unfortunately, we do not have anything in tanker in the SLC area. On a good note, there are plenty of opportunities in the other divisions of Prime! Have you ever considered the refrigerated, flatbed or intermodal?
