Endorsements

The endorsements, other than HazMat, are just computer tests. There are 10 versions of every endorsement tests online free at TruckerCountry.com. just take the practicevtests until you routinely score 90% or better. You don't need to pay someone to read the test questions to you. HazMat is a computer test and giving fingerprints and waiting for a TSA approval. Study on your own.

 

If you don't know the answer you can skip the question and go on to the next. 80% is needed to pass each endorsement

 

Isn't the HazMat a written test?

 

I'm thinking about getting my Tanker and Double/Tripple endorsement after I graduate, the one I really want is the Tanker, so would you say it would be a waste of money to get the Double/Tripple? I only want to get it cause I wanted to look good in the eyes of employers, the more endorsements you have the better right and I heard you need it for LTL and I heard LTL pays good money. I figured the more money I could get the better.

 

I'd get it it's a easy test you only have to take once. For ltl fedex freight, xpo or old dominion ect. You will need double/triple, tanker and hazmat. Hazmat background check takes a while. Just renewed my hazmat and it took 2 months for the background check to come back.

Just out of curiosity what is the school charging for endorsement training?

 

Cool, I have no idea what schools charge for them. I won't get my HazMat, at least not now, like you said too many hoops to get it. Is any LTL company that just requires Double/Tripple and Tanker, not HazMat? Do all of them require HazMat?

 

Yes.
