Hello, I searched for info on this topic but they were all for short term expired or revoked licenses.
I haven't had a CDL for around 13yrs now, I wasn't using it and it cost more money to renew it so I let it go. I'm looking now to get back into driving, does anyone know am I back to "square one" or do I just need to take some written tests? Thanks.
Renew a lapsed CDL after several years?

You can do it yourself by taking all the tests at the DMV, but you'll need a truck for the road test and you can't drive it to the DMV. A licensed cdl-a driver will have to drive it there for you.

Which state do you live in?motter28218 Thanks this. -
Just tell them you've been driving a reefer and waiting to get unloaded for the last 13 years. Wouldn't shock many people.

This only for a Class B, does that matter? (I started with B then got my A 10yrs later)
Thanks for the replies. -
Get the Class-A license because even some box trucks require a Class-A license. -
-
Some require "air brake" endorsement and some don't.
On job ads, many box truck jobs require Class-A cdl and some will take Class-B or Non-cdl Class-C.
