company sponsored CDL training

ABF is an excellent choice. Usually takes a few months to get started though since it's union.

If you want a quicker start then Earl Henderson Trucking is good. Three weeks classroom/local driving then hit the road with your trainer. Furnish hotel room & 3 meals a day plus transportation to their school.

 

ABF would be better than many of your other options. YRC I believe may have training also, they are LTL also.

 

Is Earl Henderson still doing their own thing? I spoke to a Prime driver a couple months ago pulling a Henderson trailer and he said Prime had acquired Earl Henderson.

 

I would most certainly call them again. This shows you want the job for life. I ain't never heard of anyone leaving ABF, Yellow, NewPenn

 

Earl Henderson has their own CDL school and refresher in Troy, IL. They pull some Prime trailers also. There's a connection between Prime/Henderson/O&S/Wil-Trans and maybe a couple of others.

 

That's up to you, if you can afford to wait them out. If not, Henderson will have you in class Monday morning probably. They don't mess around and get right down to business. I'm not pushing the company, but I like their reputation of cutting out all the BS other companies put a new driver through and getting down to business.

 

Its been over 3 weeks,I would call them.
