Progressing

Most likely your going have to start with werner,do at lease 6 months with them and go with a company that hauls flatbed.If you want to haul fuel,your going to need at lease 2 years otr experience first but this doesn't mean you cant haul tankers.You can look into a milk hauling company get experience there and then once you have at lease year experience pulling tanker,than go with fuel tankers.But most fuel tankers companies required a min.of 2 years experience.Hauling fuel is not for newbies.

 

It would really be to your benefit to give your location . Members know smaller companies in various areas that are preferable to the large carriers .
Don't take training because of any hopes from a pre-hire . Pre-hires men absolutely nothing . It only means they know you are not a convicted felon with 10 DUI's that would automatically cause you to be rejected . Many students with prehires never make it to orientation .

 

O/O in gasoline hauling are rare. Most likely because of the 2 million bond they have to put up. It just depends on where you're at. But you've got the right idea and shooting for the best is always the way to go. You can expand a little and look into hauling radioactive material. The stuff is going to be hauled one day.

 

Radioactive materials are already being hauled . A local carrier here hauls them from NJ to Metroplois IL . They are hauled in cargo containers .

 

You're right they've been hauling them for years but when Yucca MTN opens there will be a flood to get all the highly radioactive stuff from each power plant to the MTN. I know most of the route will be by rail but it's got to get to the trains. Just something to look at.

 

Hey Dark Reaper. Send an ap to Wiley Sanders in Troy, AL. You will need to take Hazmat but I am starting orientation on Monday. Just got my CDL last week.
