Anyone know how much they start newbies that go through their cdl program? I'm reading conflicting stories online some say .30 a mile, some say .32 some say .30 +.10 per diem.
Also is there a contract for a length of time you need to drive for them?
Lastly Roehl or Stevens who would you go with?
Stevens Transport to start with?

Where do you live? If you're in Texas, I'd go with Stevens and haul Tanks. Water tanks in north Texas, frac sand in the south. APU, Inverters, 13 speed. Water is home daily, sand is 3 out and 1 home, paying 26% of the load to start.

In my whole life. Everyone has always expected a ministry out of me. Employers, customers, employees I had to work with. They do it because they get away with it. Don't let them get away with it.

Thanks I needed a good laugh!!
I can't believe people are that dumb to work for megas that pay crap. Work at McDonalds and make more money. Jesus weptBB203 and lagbrosdetmi Thank this. -
I do not know the details on their contracts, since I got my CDL from a different school. But if you get a loan from them to do CDL classes, expect a contract.
In short, I recommend Stevens for new drivers. But after six months or a year, move on.
Do not allow them to put you in a lease truck. You do not know enough about the business as a new driver to make a lease work. They will pester you about it constantly. Politely refuse.
I have NEVER spoken to a happy Stevens lease operator who was not *ALSO* a trainer. They might exist, but i worked there 14 months, and never found one.
