    Do some Google for community college CDL schools; they are the cheapest and as good or better than private CDL schools.

    Comcar has their own CDL school, but a community college is your best bet.

    If you're unemployed, the unemployment office in Tampa will help with Roadmaster CDL school.

    OK six months in the making with Prime but recently got offer from Marten, to be honest Prime not too shabby but Marten is located near home. Really undecided which to go with. Marten has better sit time but Prime seems like a stronger company to stay with...hmmm! Which would you pick if you were in my shoe?5

    Look at Heyl Truck Lines based in Zephyrhills; they have local, regional, OTR and only need 6 mos. experience.

    Indian River Transport has been hiring a few new CDL grads. Food grade tanker based in Winter Haven.

    Oakley Transport based in Lake Wales usually requires 12 months exp. but might cut some slack. Truck have APU's. Food grade tanker.

    Sunstate Carriers based in Tavares does lots of Canada turnarounds and home most weekends.

    Shop around! Make more comparisons!
