Where to start? Previous training fell through

You will not be allowed to be a slob around food grade. Ive hauled food grade plus raw milk in my day. You will have a good time with tanker if that is what you want. But you cannot be a slob around this type of hauling.

You hold on to that savings and add to it, you are ahead of 90% of others who want to truck.

 

Call her!

 

Another option is to go to your local unemployment office and find out if they have a worker retraining program. They sometimes offer grants for people and will pay for your schooling. I worked with a guy who did this and got his CDL for free. There is a huge shortage of truckers everywhere and I would be surprised if they didn't have this type of program in your area. Another way to get your CDL would be to find a company that is willing to train you- usually its someone like a local beer distributor.

 

Prime Inc. trucks have APU's which is a good thing. I know of only one other tanker outfit that has APU's and that's Oakley in Florida.

 

CTL has APU

 

Call! Keep calling until you get an answer!

 

This is true. I went through school on a grant and a small loan
