SoCal Trucking School Pricing

hello im a recent cdl grad... however im trying to see if theres schools in LA that have 53ft trailers to practice with. my school only has small trailers.. does dootson have them?

 

does any one know of a school in los angeles that uses 53ft trailers?

 

I am in San Diego, and I'm very interested in finding a local school which can help with the cost of school in some way. I really don't like to be chained to a company for years--Swift, as one exanple, says I'd have to work for them for 2 years to pay off the cost of the school....

I'd love some direction toward a reasonable cost of education. Any ideas? It seems most of these posts on this thread are from last year.

 

The school I went to had 1-53' and 1-48' , but this is in KS, not CA.

 

We have a 53 we sometimes use but I usually use a 48.

 

We are also accredited. But we don't make you take out a mortgage to come to our school.

 

HOLY CRAP!

I have read about these darn schools, but I had no idea they were raping you newbies that bad. DANG!!!!

I could see the value IF they taught you how to drive. Facts are, they just help you get your license. $8217.00 just ain't worth it to me.

 

hey there can you hit me up with the address from this school ? i live in los angeles and my research will broke me down. school in los angeles are pretty much expensive

 

California Career School is located in Anaheim if you can travel there. Its a good school, I'm currently with them and got my CDL yesterday and am working on the bus. I should have that by the end of the month. The school is 15 weeks long if you do the truck and bus. I think the cost is a little less than $6,000 for that. It would be less for just the truck, I'm not sure how much though. Their website is http://www.californiacareerschool.edu/
