Pay and Mileage when starting trucking?

Community College or any that are accredited FMCSA (Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration) and SC DOT ( South Carolina Department Of Transportation) school.

This one looks good that I posted earlier this week:
Collins Barber and CDL Truck Driving School (collinsbarbertruckschool.com)
Trucking Program
Our roots in trucking are the core of our business. Our instructors are dedicated to training the students efficiently and safely. We teach all of our students to make sure that transfers are seamless so that time is not lost in transition. We are an accredited FMCSA (Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration) and SC DOT ( South Carolina Department Of Transportation) school. SMALL CLASSES.

*** NEW CLASSES START EACH MONTH ***

 

I looked at them but their tuition is around $13k. The place I am considering is $6k out of pocket

 

$13K is too high.

 

Yeah it is. You had to pay around $1,500 deposit plus $250 each week while training. It was stupidly high when other schools are half the price. Is 152 hour training good enough or are their requirements for more hours for companies?

 

Some companies want 160 hours or more and some just want 120 hours.

 

Ok thank you

• Finishing Program
• After you’ve obtained your CDL at a truck driver training school of your choice, Freymiller’s Finishing Program can be the next step to help you develop your skills into those of a true professional driver. Freymiller brings on only the best the company has to offer to coach you on your way. That means our trainees get some of the best instruction in the industry to enhance the CDL training you received at your truck driver training school. Novice CDL driver trainees stay out for up to 8 weeks to complete the Finishing Program. During that time, you’ll drive all across the United States, and haul a variety of product(s), through many different terrains. This gives you a post-CDL school learning experience that is supervised by an experienced driver. Unlike other companies, Freymiller prepares you to be a solo driver. This means one-on-one instruction with only one learner on the truck at a time where you will increase responsibilities, and eventually act as a first seat driver. After the Finishing Program is complete, you can hit the ground running — and earning!
• Edit: better call Freymiller about age requirement; not sure they hire 21 yr. old drivers. Simple call to find out.
