Does pulling a tank wagon, fueling up equipment count as fuel hauling experience?

1st of all, that fueling equipment job sounds like a decent gig. No pressure or road hassles, by the hour, take your time, but I don't think it counts as actual fuel hauling. Probably 90% of hauling fuel is dealing with road situations, weather, or handling a loaded tanker in traffic, stuff you probably won't encounter in the fill-up job. If you are even remotely thinking of a job like that, by all means get the Class A CDL. Pretty sure you can drive anything with a class A, but not t'other way 'round.

I have 5yrs of Class A experience, just trying to get some fuel hauling experience. Currently pulling tankers in the oilfield.

Tartan might also be an option to get your foot in the door if you don’t have anywhere you need to be for a few weeks at a time. I think they’re out 4-6 weeks or so, filling in where Pilot is short trucks. I see them a lot running out of Doniphan and North Platte going up to South Dakota.

Yup out 6 weeks back for one. Referred to as floater positions by pilot.

If youre that serious about getting into fuel DO NOT turn down another class A job offer from a fuel hauling company.
