    Are you going with a trainer, or are you getting your truck after orientation?

    I usually take around 10 days worth of clothes. Also, a vehicle charger for your cell phone. If you use a phone alot. Just in case your trainer does not have a power inverter.

    get a roll of quarters for laundry ,go to a dollar gen or walmart get some detergent. take a towel too,the towels they give you at terminals come from the body shop they double as sandpaper. sleeping bag, pillow etc. dont try to overpack ,you'll get by nice with what you have,besides if your trainer is a major D!(!<h<@D you wont be on the side of the road looking like you just got evicted. dont be surprised if they tell you there are no trucks after your 3 months,they just want to make more money off you at 350 or 375 per week. I pulled for Werner but got out when I could go on my own with another company. BOL to you.
