I think your first stop is to determine if they are putting vans on. I believe they stopped adding vans, but I would confirm with a call to recruiting. They can answer your other questions with regards to brokering as well.

Got a question for you- What's the maximum load milage a single
Cargo van can go per run (non-haz load)?

That depends on a lot of variables, how long till delivery, if there is a van that they can do a switch, along with a location to do it. I would guess somewhere in the 600 mile range thou.

I could say something about using an apostrophe to form a plural, but I'll refrain since it's not polite to pick on grammar on an internet forum.

Vans 10,000# and under are not required to log so there is no limit on the miles you can go. I have done runs 800 to 1100 miles driving straight thru because the load needed to be there ASAP.

I don't expect correct punctuation from everyone who posts, but it'd be nice to see it from those who write signage for a business - which truckstop sells "Apple's & Banana's"? It always makes me wonder (like Turtle) apple's and banana's WHAT?!
I'd apologize for hijacking the thread, but it seems to have changed direction......

There's a wonderful restaurant in Sikeston, MO called Lamberts. Home of the Throwed Rolls.

At one time they had billboards informing you that:

"Your almost here!"

You see, a pronoun's made to take the place of a noun,
cause sayin' all those nouns over and over can really wear you down.
