TITAN TRANSFER

So I have decided to go with Titan Transfer out of Shelbyville Tennessee, just in the early hiring process but will keep you all updated if you would like, on the process, and training etc
Thank you @Chinatown for the recommendation

 

Thank You

 

Okay I have been talking with Titan and Really impressed with what I have seen and heard. They have a terminal in West Chester Ohio which is a half hour from my house, as well as a terminal in Louisville Ky, which is were my inlaws live, so I could take home time at either location. Their training is 4 weeks IN CLASS Room, at which time you graduate WITH Your CDL, then you get assigned a trainer who you are with for 8 weeks, after that you get your own truck. They Run Freightliner and Kenworth T-680 WHICH I am FOND of. The trucks are 70 MPH and come with the bells and whistles. Starting pay is .37 CPM, average 2,800 a week or more. Was in Louisville over the weekend and stopped by the Terminal actually spoke to a driver and everything she confirmed everything the recruiter has said and really loves her job, she said she is was still a "Rookie" and only been with the company 15 years
Training is in Shelbyville Tennessee, cost is $2500, once you get your own truck. They take the payment for school out of your paycheck for 9 months, then when it's paid back, every quarter you stay after that, they give you a check for 600 until they pay YOU back the $2500 so makes school "Free" Also something other schools don't do is, EVERYDAY when you show up, you are on the clock, Grant it it's only Minimum wage but it's for 40 hours a week, you get your first check the second week of school. Most places, you have to go through school first, then get on the truck with your trainer and usually AFTER your 2nd week you will start getting paid, so you have to be able to survive for essentially 5 weeks without pay. One down side is you have to provide your own Room and Board while there, HOWEVER, that being said they have a couple hotels in the area where you can get a room for $39/night, or they have a few people who OWN apartments you can rent for $100/Week. HAZMAT IS NOT REQUIRED but IF you have your HAZMAT you get $50 extra per load. So excited to get started, shooting for their July Class for a start. So should have my own truck by October, although hoping since I have a little driving experience with Millis I may be able to slide through faster but not going to sweat it.
