    www.schneiderjobs.com has box truck jobs that don't require a cdl.
    They have box trucks & cargo vans that don't require a cdl.
    If I were you though, I'd try to go with a company that will help you get a CDL-A.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Do some Google searches and maybe find a cdl school that has part time or weekend classes. Takes longer to complete, but it's one way to do it.

    I'm not sure if company sponsored get your CDL programs in general are a great idea. They own your keester for several years. I went to a private school good thing I did because I persued a local job and now drive tanker for Walton milk hauling.

    Also get your class A, class B limits what you can do. Tanker endorsement is a wise move and opens options. Around here milk hauling is huge with likely more then a dozen companies. Fuel hauling also is an option with added hazmat.

    I don't know if I will ever persue doubles and tripples but who knows.

    When does ups not provide benefits for dock workers?

    The only ones I know of that don't get benefits are the temp guys during holidays.

    By the way op, you can't rent a truck for a class b license road test, most places won't rent to you a 26,000 plus give truck for a road test because you don't have a cdl and that is what is required to drive one. The examiner will have to inspect the truck to make sure that it is a legal 26,000 lb gvw truck and if it isn't, he is not allowed to let you do a road test in it.

    If you want a class B most schools will train you in a bus, but its low pay and not many hours.
