Confirm The Seat Fits.
A city page describes the practical home-base fit, not a promise that every Lakeville seat is open in every location. Before you make a decision, recruiting will confirm the current lane, where your equipment is based, the expected schedule, and whether your parking plan works for the available position.
Binghamton is approximately 145 miles from the Rochester terminal and is evaluated as part of the Southern Tier recruiting area.
Current openings may align with the Rochester ↔ Elmira corridor; recruiting verifies the actual assignment before hire.
