    I know this is is very broad but any advice is appreciated. I would like to find a paid training company that has a one of the better reputations for training, good trucks, pay, home time, ethics, getting job offers after the 1st year...etc. if I could just get a few of those things I will be as satisfied as I could ask. I am in Texas, and would like flat bed regional. I received a DUI in 2008, clean criminal history (other than DUI), good job history. I unfortunately need urine test only because I'm afraid THC will still show. Not even close to being a regular smoker, but I'm a little worried about a hair follicle.

    He needs urine test only company; that's a tough one. Probably have to make some phone calls and don't use your own phone or real name when you ask if the company does urine or hair follicle.
    Try this one for flatbed:

    My question would do you plan on continuing to be a non- regular smoker while being employed as a truck driver. If you have not smoked in 2 months your system should be cleared 3 months the pollutants should definitely be out. I would apply to companies that suit your needs & wants you are looking for out of a company. I hope all goes well for you as the smoke clears

    Thanks for the advice.

    No, I will not be smoking as a CDL driver. I just don't want to wait a year for a hair follicle test. I will wait 2 more months. That will be almost 3 months at that point. I'm doing this to earn a living. I will take this very serious. Any advice on companies that will do UA's only?
     
    Truckrazy Thanks this.

    I would suggest you pay for a nondisclosure independent test before you sign with any company. First to see if anything registers. Then try to limit your public info on the matter, including asking around for suggestions. You are risking, getting on the black list, then you'll have difficulty clearing your name...
