    Does anyone know the process of getting the hazmat endorsement in California? How much does it cost and what not?

    i,d go take the written test at dmv..then you have to get fingerprinted and background check. not sure what the website is but something like hazprint.com or just google hazmat. it cost around approx. 120.00 again not sure. but you get the idea lol

    i think its like $60 if you already have your cdl. if youre just now getting your cdl too it wont cost anything extra (at dmv) to pile on all the endorsements (aside from the fingerprint/background check). But the dmv makes you pay every time they have to make a new license
