    I don't know of any school per se that you can pay tuition or a fee to attend in exchange for training. However, most companies will train you on the basics just because most have their own way of doing things so they'll expect you to do it their way.

    Do you have any one in your net work of friends that pull skate boards? That is one good way.

    … I read the little green book on load securement.. it’s a minimum.
    Imo; before you have anyone tell you how to do it. Remember that an average driver takes shortcuts from there. Be better than average.
