Any Questions about Roehl??

If I train at Ellenwood is there orientation/training elsewhere or do you get the whole enchalata at one location?

 

What would be a reasonable expectation for weekly, and yearly, take home pay during my first year with Roehl? I've seen others on these forums talk about 2,300 miles a week, but what does that boil down to after normal paycheck deductions? I will be going flatbed, national fleet.

 

Can anyone tell me how the idle restrictions work at Roehl . I cant sleep when its hot I need the ac and a fan blowing. I need to know this before I commit to them for school. Thanks any info is helpful

 

Odds are you won't get a truck that needs to idle for a/c, heat and power. Most of the old ones will be gone very soon. The rest have an APU or a Battery pack system that supplies HVAC and power when the engine is off.

 

Hello to everyone, I am in FLorida and will graduate on Florida Coast Career Tech (Florida state college division) May 4th, i have orientation in Elleenwood May 7th. I am excited and cant wait to get started! Just wanted to say hey to all and just one quick question. Do you think i can drop my trailer at the drop yard here in Jax and just the truck to my house? I am looking at some comcast and phone lines that dont look 13' 6" but i know they should be and i dont want to rip em off the pole but then again aren't they suppose to be at least 13'6"?

 

Im supposed to take a physical on Tuesday and was wondering if there is anything I need to be worried about . I dont do drugs ever and I just started taking a low dose pill 10mg for hypertynsion ( high blood pressure) . I currently have a two yr dot med card. Im a big guy but in good shape for sure. I was reading some post on here about sleep apnia test is this true you have to take one if neck is bigger then 17 inches because mine is like 19 . Im sure I dont have sleep apnia. Do you have to pay for the test on your own. Love our government and all the regulations they put on buisness owners thats why all our jobs are overseas much less regulations. Thanks and look forward to your replies. I start school on June 11th.

 

If your BMI is above 35 and neck is more than 17" you'll need a sleep study. they will probably give you a 6 month card. according to my recruiter, they wait untill your insurance kicks in before you have to get the study done

 

So if you're bmi is below that but neck size is say 18 what would happen

 

idk in that case. with your neck being at 19 and depending on your height, weight, and build in general, it'll come down to Roehl's standard and the examiner. I had a bmi at 36 and the neck was 17. so i have to have one. IT Sucks, otoh everybody that that has commented about them are glad they use one. so im using that as my guide. and since i got a 6 month card i'm hoping i can lose a few pounds and recertify before I have to take a sleep study.

 

When you get ready to take cdl driving test at school who does it and where
