Hey guys, I'm company driver. just purchased a tractor and not hired a driver yet.
I'm already getting drug testing with the company i'm driving for.
Do i need to join a drug testing consortium if i did not hire any driver for my truck yet ?
or do i need to join one even if im already being tested in my company?

You need to enroll "Your" company in a consortium. I use http://www.neweradrugtesting.com for mine.
PALOU Thanks this. -
You seem to have your own #s ,so you need your own drug testing program Being covered under a dot drug testing program now just gets you off of doing a pre employment test.
And you as the owner need to be in the program or you can't drive your own truck.double yellow and PALOU Thank this. -
How much did it cost you /year ?
-
175.00 is what i pay with foley carrier service.
-
It's around $150 to enroll which includes cost of two randoms that year. They'll send you Custody and Control Forms needed to give testing site. What I like about New Era is they have thousands of testing sites, both local near your company, and throughout the lower 48 should you get selected while OTR.PALOU Thanks this.

I use ooida ..... Don't remember how much a year .
-
Ooida use to be $100 per year. That was a while ago though. I'm sure inflation has hit by now
-
OOIDA is like 125 a year now...plus your 45 yearly membership I guess.....not sure if you have to have both?
But they are great man.....super knowledgeable in our industry IMO.PALOU Thanks this. -
$125 is for each driver or for the whole company ?
