No CDL? What Next?

have you tried any other one's like Prime, Schneider? are you sure they don't just want you to your permit before coming?

 

Did they tell you that you needed your actual CDL or just the permit? I just went and wrote my permit and most of the endorsements. Then I'm off to a company that will train me for 3 wks to take my CDL drive test. When I get my license, they will hire me on. There are a few companies out there that are still willing to invest in helping you to get your CDL, but it will cost you. A pretty penny... or a year... sometimes 2 of your life. Swift, Prime, Roehl, Millis are some of a few..... Good luck!!

 

You just have to get your CDL permit which can be obtained by taking the written tests by going to the DMV. After obtaining your permit, you then go to company training where you will learn to drive the truck and hopefully pass the road test and obtain your CDL....hope this helps and good luck!

 

Paintedblack, They do have training, what she meant was you need to get your learners permit, Go on their website and look under (student truck driver training program) it will tell you everything, and the number to call, (hope this helps you out)

 

And, in my state, my DOT physical HAD to be on file in the state DMV system before they would hand me my permit. And this can apparently take up to 5 business days. The health center that gave me my physical actually faxed mine in for me, it was there in 2 days.

 

Better find out for sure.Does'nt make any since to have your CDL if FEE is a school.But permit,yes you do need that before driving their trks.

 

Well I tried to send you one, but they flagged it. I used "Truckers Truth" CDL Training Companies.... to do most of my research. He lists all the companies and what the requirements are.
