    Yep. If we're not up there, we deliver in Sea-Tac. There is a western states company driver group based in Salt Lake. Getting home time shouldn't be a problem for you.

    Thanks for the reply, Do they hire new drivers thru there ? or does everything go thru the headquarters in Missouri ? They sound like they have a pretty good benefits package.
    This would be a second career for me. Daughter lives in Portland, thanks, Sportz

    Pretty sure all orientations with new hires and students go through Springfield MO . They will bus you in if your ok with that ride. Im going in 2 weeks for cdl training im flying. Even new hires that have experience have to go there.

    All new driver training is done in Springfield. Drivers holding a CDL from your area will go to orientation in Salt Lake. If you want to fly make sure you let recruiting know... they'll reimburse you the price of a bus ticket later on.

    As a point of reference they reimburse your travel expenses with cash during your interview in the office. Up to the cost of a bus ticket, atleast. See if you can't get a cheap one way rental car with unlimited mileage and out of state drop. A lot of guys, including myself did.
