Tanker companies that hire new CDL grads:
Schneider Bulk
Groendyke Transport
CTL Transportation
SVTN
Superior Carriers
Trimac Transportation
Tidewater Transit
Bay&Bay
A&R Logistics
All these companies hire new CDL grads even though some websited may show "experience required." -
I just retired from the military but have had a CDL for the past 20 years. I have decided on Maverick Trucking with the idea of doing tankers after the first year. Maverick does not require a 160 hr course and have an excellent training program from what I hear. I start orientation next week.

Which is not to suggest I don't feel ya, but the only person who can correct stinkin' thinkin' is you. Your employer may have a program to let you speak with a therapist for "work-related stress" on their dime, but if you have to pay for it yourself I'd think it would be a wise investment.Rollin'Coal, rank and Danvitt Thank this. -
Not down on life, just fed up and need change of pace. I know there is lot wrong with trucking but I'm just pulled towards the peace of being alone and doing my own thing. At least if i hit the road, I'll be dealing with new ######## instead of the same old ones. -
yes you are out of your mind, but that is what it takes to be a truck driver. Must do what is beneficial for you, regardless of what nay sayers say...
Just be ready for a learning curve and small paychecks to start.
and keep in mind, you will not be working 40 hours in 5 days, but 70 hours in 8 days... well actually you will work more than that as a truck driver.Danvitt Thanks this.
