    Hello everyone, have a quick question. I've searched and searched but to no avail.

    Are there any CDL Training Companies that only drug screen with the UA?

    Before you Vet's post telling me if I'm worried about a test this isn't the career for me, I just want you to know that I've never been an addict, just an occasional toke here and there, and I have given it up. I've been clean for a good while now but just the fact that it could show positive for up to a year of prior usage if rather be safe than sorry. Unless I can find a company that only does UA it looks like I'll be shaving my head and waiting 3 months to go to Knight Inc. But that will leave me in a really tight spot as I quit my job to go only thinking they would UA and was informed today Knight uses both UA and Hair testing.

    CRST is NOT an option.

    Thank you in advance for your information.

    Regards, -Kyle

    If you're really worried about it buy your own test kit and test yourself. I see them at Walgreens, Walmart and Ebay, $40 - $75. If you come up + then you can buy some chemical treatments to put on your hair. The only problem with that? They might ask to test a hair off your arse eh? All joking aside remember if you do join this industry you are subject to random testing at any time... at your terminal, a scale house, an accident site etc. A CDL is your livelihood...never jeopardize it.

    Those chemical treatments are classified as "masking", so if the test results show possible masking, you fail the drug test.

    Did you apply with Witte Bros. in Troy?

    You asked a similar question on another thread.

    I'm not taking the chance with masking or trying to trick the test. I've given up drug usage completely and will remain that way. Thanks China, I'll look them up. Any other companies given would be greatly appreciated

    Also, I'm only 21 years old.

    Swift requires you to be 23

    My buddy owns a GNC. He sells the products that cleans your hair of toxins like you have in your hair. The stuff actually works. You'll pass as long as you follow the directions.....that's the key. Don't use the product then toke up. Lol

    Check out US Xpress. They only do urine & I believe hire 21 year olds.

    Put in your profile where you live. Makes it easier for us to help you.
