    Can anyone recommend trucking school and/or trucking company close to Jupiter, Florida?

    I am currently 21, I heard that it's best to wait until 23 to get hired, why's that?

    Sage has a school in Ft. Pierce at the Indian River State college. Sage is pretty good from what I'm told.....

    Up there I would go to Sage. I talked to a guy that went through them and it wasn't bad.

    I would imagine its beacause many companies might not hire unless your 23. But that is no reason for you to wait til your 23 to go to school....you will find companies willing to take you on. flash forward 2 years you will be glad you didnt wait.

    If you don't mind me asking, how much is it. And do they have that seminar or orientation thing on Wednesdays to come visit the school and get information?
