    Hello everyone, I am new to this site and just wanted a little input on where to start. I have my CDL and hazmat but not much driving. I have a little under six months and that was almost two years ago. How can I get a job? Should I go back and pay $1,295 for a 40 hour refresher course? Just not sure but want to work. :)

    Swift has a program that gets drivers back on the road. Don't know the details, but many in your situation go with them.

    CRST in Fontana will get you back on the road if you agree to stick with them for 8 months.

    Prime and Central Refrigerated both can help you and pay you while in training. Prime pays $600.00 a week while in training and Central pays $540.00 a week while training.

    Yes it is a small world. I love it here! Always 10-15 degrees cooler than Redding. Thanks for the comment and the warm welcome!
