Schneider Tanker - rookie questions

Why would the state of your licsense matter? I know location of where you live does.

Have you already got a place in Tx? If so, take proof that you've moved. When they ask for your licsense let them know you're in the process of changing but haven't done so yet. They might give you a time frame to meet and have your new one by, but if you take proof then I doubt they'd boot you.

 

Me personally? No, but that's because I drive on a dedicated account where we park our tractors about 20 miles away.

If I had to, I could though.

 

Schneider should give you time to acquire a Texas CDL. And will do what they can to help you get one.
I worked out of West Memphis for a year on my Nevada licence with only an occasional reminder from Schneider to change it.

Texas, like NV, TN, WA, etc., does not have a state income tax.
So, dependent upon your current residency, you could collect a bigger paycheck.

And yes, there is personal vehicle parking in Houston.

 

I just recently moved to a new state for a job and had ~30 days to change my license over. Not sure if it will matter to Schneider so long as you are legal to drive, thats really their big concern. When you do transfer your license make sure you have the endorsements you need (the X should cover tank+hazmat). When I moved I had to wait for finger prints to come back for my hazmat which took up about 3 weeks of my 30 days, so I had to come home and scramble to get my temporary. Texas may be different though and they may just transfer all endorsements over straight away.
