Thanks for all the info so far!
Chinatown
So, what I've heard so far... Stevens is a good place to start.
I have my class A , no practical experience. Got it on my own. No school.
Im in Sioux city ... it makes me feel a little guilty...but, does anyone know a local to me* company that will put me on?
Stevens has me coming down next week and I love having my foot in the door, but having said that,,, am I leaving money on the table? ...
I would love a local gig to keep me with my woman, cuz girls rock!
Tell me your thoughts or questions .
Before i go all in

Going with Stevens isn't having your foot in the door. Going with Stevens is having your foot step in a big pile of crap.
At least you already have your CDL and can walk away at any time.coastietruckin', Tigerstail, Puppage and 1 other person Thank this. -
Those big company pay worsens Wal-Mart..
Tigerstail Thanks this. -
Stevens is a training company, and they train well. The pay is definitely low, but once you put six months to a year in, without screwing up too badly, you can get a job at almost any company that hires drivers with only a little experience.
Nearly every person in Safety and Operations that a driver might talk to are experienced drivers. That's golden if you are the sort who will pick up the phone when you need help.coastietruckin', Woodys, Tigerstail and 2 others Thank this. -
Forget Stevens.
You got tons of companies near you.
I remember a tanker company near there. They hired and trained new grads. They wouldn’t hire me cause of where I live.
You literally have a smorgasbord of companies near you! Start looking!coastietruckin', Tigerstail, Dumdriver and 2 others Thank this. -
I agree with Post #7 since you haven't been to cdl school.

Here's one, but the qualifications are confusing. Says you need 2 years experience, then it says "Must hold or be able to acquire a Class A CDL (Commercial Driver License) with AIRBRAKE, Tanker Endorsement and Hazmat Endorsement within 90 days of employment."
Shag Driver (Local) - Nights
Wells Enterprise - Le Mars, IA
They have an online application or you can probably go there in person and apply.
Tigerstail Thanks this.
