Re: Husband and wife team

I did not see you asking specifically how to get into a fleet owner's w/g TVAL truck. If you are, the obvious disadvantage is splitting the revenue with the fleet owner that provides the truck. The advantage is getting into a truck without paying for it yourself.

Note that there is a waiting list now to get into White Glove. Openings occur. It just might be a while before one occurs for you. Recruiters and fleet owners can tell you more about the current openings and waits.

The biggest money in w/g reefer work can be made by owner-operator teams, with the work ethic and credentials you describe, that drive an ER unit (tractor-trailer, TVAL reefer equipped). Since you are already driving doubles, ER-unit driving is certainly an avenue to explore.
