Education materials

Where is your location? State or Zip Code or nearest town/city.
Are you in a situation to move or pretty much stuck there?

 

Eastern Kentucky is OK for trucking jobs for new drivers.
Income tax free states are even better, so you can keep more of your income.

 

Are you able to do heavy work, such as in flatbeds, lifting 50 - 80 lb. tarps and chains?
Refrigerated trucking is ok also, to get the career started. I liked it enough to do refrigerated for 18 years running coast-to-coast.
You can attend a private cdl school or a trucking company cdl school.
After 12 - 24 mos experience, can move on to the higher paying jobs, such as tankers.

 

Can get an early jump on tankers with Schneider. The tanker division is the only division I recommend because the pay is too low in the other divisions.
Schneider will pay for cdl school and tanker school.
A new cdl school grad in Louisville just was hired for Schneider Tanker.
