Question

My current job is being eliminated on 9/30/06.

Answer 1

You’re looking for a “Drive Away” delivery company. Look in your yahoo yellow pages under transportation/trucking companies in Elkhart Indiana. That area is the motor home/travel trailer mfg capital of the world. They produce more in this area than anywhere in the US and have several of these companies listed.

Answer 2

In the case of motorhomes, the larger manufactureers typically contract with a separate company that delivers for them. In the case of Winnebago, they use (or did) use a company called Care-A-Van, or something similar. This was for their class A,B and C motorhomes. Fleetwood (also another large mfg) does the same but a different drive away company. Call one (or several) of the mfgrs and ask them who they use and see if they will give you their phone number.

For pull trailers (5th wheel and bumper hitch drawn equipment) drivers typically own their own pick up truck and they arrange for loads through contract agencies as well.

Can't speak about other specialty equipment, fire trucks, ambulance etc. but again, call the mfg. and talk to them.

Quality Drive-Away is one of the larger drive-away brokers in the USA with offices in seven states around the country. They require most drivers to have a commercial driver license (CDL). You can learn more about them at this web site...
