info??
I in Florida near Jax Only school close is National (dont wanna do home study) Then Sage kinda close (150 hrs) most companys hiring in my area want 160 hr school and accredited or mainly 160 hrs. Then comm collage 2-3 hrs away but 10WKS (that long time) Nt.-$4500 Sage-$4000 Comm. C.-$1800 what up with this?? Natinal accredited something Sage no accredited Comm. C. is PTDI accredited but (10WKS) cant afford not make any moey that long. Then PTDI accredited in GA. 3wk like National (no home study) BEtter to get mountian driving around $4000 But cant get loan for that one. I cant get a WIA grant. So what company school hires below Jacksonville Fl. and has training. Because I'm getting shut down. Any Comm. collage in other states PDTI 160 hr. class. Might be on list for sallie mae loan. WHY NOT COMPANY TRAINING YOU REALY SHOULD STAY FOR 1 YR IF YOU MOVE AROUND TO MUCH THEN WHAT? BUT WHATS BEST ONE? ALSO WHY NOT JUST DO SALERY TRUCKIN I'LL DRIVE ANY MILES (LEGAL) WITH 70HRS WEEK FOR $1000 WK WHO WOULDN'T??

Yes. If you have a CDL they will send you out with a trainer. If you don't they put you in a school in Little Rock AR.
I just saw your location though. They don't hire out of FL or at least not far into FL. Here is their hiring area. [LINK POSTED BY MEMBER] Only Members Can View This Truck Forum Link.

It is hard to get anything in FL. Freight goes in, but coming out is questionable sometimes. You don't have a lot of choices. As far as the best flatbed training without a CDL I would say maverick. Mcelroy you need a school. TMC has good training as far as load securement, but I would not drive for them.
