Help! wan to train in Fontana, CA what company is best to work for?

Good luck on halfway decent money right off the bat.maybe after 12-18 months you can make ok money.

 

Do yourself a big favor and find a community college in CA that has a truck driving program. Beg, borrow, or steal the money for tuition. If you train though a company, you become their indentured servant for 6-12 months. If you quit or get fired, you have to pay for the training PLUS INTEREST! Lots of interest!!! The state of CA may have a tuition assistance/retraining program in which they will pay for your tuition at a community college.

Good luck!

 

Check with Schneider we have a great little O.C (operating center) there. Schneider requires you go to one of their approved school's but i'm sure there's one around. Schneider's a good company to work for I've been there 7+ years and only have minor complaints. No company's perfect so you have to take the good with the bad. Good luck

 

The County of San Bernardino has a program that will pay for your tuition if you are unemployed. I know the office is just west of the DMV in Rancho Cucamonga (Archibald/9th St). I had two friends that did this and they make sure you get all your endorsements too.

 

When I was in school their funds were disappearing. A couple students in my class couldn't make it in the last week because they stopped getting money for gas.

 

I personally would go to school outside of a trucking company and then you dont have to be their servant for a length of time. Besides you will get better trained as some companies such as CRST in Fontana have only a 2 week course. As far as companies, check the good and bad lists on this site and narrow it down from there. Several companies have yards in Fontana. Choose one that has safe legal trucks and keeps them maintained and has you running legal. Keep your record clean for a year and pretty much go where you want. Its all part of paying your dues.
