    Working for a company that saves the jobs and licences of truckers I often think of getting behind the wheel myself. My question is has anyone here tried or gone through the Celedon Trucking School in Indiana and if so, what was your experience and would you recommend this company to others?

    Celadon is in rough water right now financially.

    Low pay even for a starter but they'll get you in a truck

    You need to use the search function on here so you can get the latest on celadon.
    In all seriousness the writing on the wall is in pretty bright letters.
    This company is in serious financial trouble.
    So much that the doors could close at any moment.
     
    anytrucker and tonyephrim Thank this.

    I'd pass on Celadon for now. Many drivers like working there, but right now they're having serious financial problems.
    If you live in Indiana, there's other choices within the state.
     
    BigTennOTR, Vic Firth and tonyephrim Thank this.

    SDIA seems to be the LTL's favorite school to hire on students.
    Old Dominion recruits from them or so I've heard? Up for confirmation.

    I went to C1 and had a really good experience but I wouldn't recommend any of the companies they'll try to send you to after you graduate.

    You don't have to start at a mega if you need financing. There are many better options to get your CDL that are worth looking into.
    Try Holland's dock to driver program, I think they're off Raymond street.
