Considering TMC now... I have 3yrs dry van experience but no flatbed. How long does orientation and training last with TMC if you don't have experience with flatbed?

If they haven't changed anything from what I remember, 2 weeks OTR w/ trainer. As for orientation, I think it's the full 12, but I can't recall for certain.
Slim one Thanks this. -
2 weeks orientation and then you'll be placed with a trainer for no less than 2 weeks, and as much as 6 weeks. Depends on how quick you pick it up
Slim one Thanks this. -
experienced orientation is only one week in either Des Moines IA or Gaston SC. Then out with a trainer for at least 2 weeks . I have an experienced trainee driving my truck right now
Slim one Thanks this. -
Just got accepted today to training school ar nearat TMC live near I-75 in London KY. What type of routes come out of this way.
Thanks -
All kinds...because I-75 might be TMC's second-busiest corridor (at least in my experience). And being between Columbus OH (steel, steel and more steel) and northern GA (wood, wood, and more wood), not to mention being that close to Cincinnati (drywall, drywall and more drywall--out of Silver Grove KY, just outside Cincy)--you'll be plenty fine in your area.
-
Not to mention tons of shingles put pf carlise amd medina.
-
Oh good gosh, yes...that OC in Medina is a gold mine if you can get in there at the right times.....
-
I wouldn't exactly call it a good mine, but if you can get a good looking load out of there, they usually pay well
-
Yeah its a pain to get to and maneuver through, but considering some OC shingle plants out there (like the one in Jacinto City Houston--or worse, Irving outside Dallas), I'll take Medina five times out of five.
