I'd go with the 8 week 320 hour school. That will give you more choices of trucking companies to drive for.

 

ODFL Freight Shipping near Pensacola, Florida
This company probably hires from that 320 hour school. This is one drivers stick around and retire from. Need all the endorsements!

 

Not to sound dumb. New so just a question of learning. I did ask the school if they helped with job placement their reply was no. How would the school give me more choices of trucking companies to drive for.

 

Do the 8 week college course, you’ll absorb more and it’s affordable. TDI course is too short and the price is insane. Let me rephrase that..15 days and $7k is a ripoff.

 

Do companies look for the amount of hours?

 

How do you feel about the Mega companies for schooling

 

Thank you for the replies and advise

 

Usually school do have job placement help, but that's just a list of companies that hire from the school. Maybe they don't do that anymore. We, on this forum, can help you find employment better than a school can.

 

Thank you!. I will stay in touch and call those companies

 

Yes, there’s been a couple students here who had problems not getting enough training hours from their discount Bozo CDL schools.

You want a 160 hour course from an accredited school..at minimum.
