Companies that offer CDL training around San Antonio?

IF KLLM the one who bought out FFE Lancaster Dallas TX then I can say that Waco field dispatch would decide what comes and goes for those who load in the region, probably MM Mars would be the top shipper. (Candy, also New Jersey. We did a lot of what they call interplant loads going back and forth (Which is rather interesting.. to consider) MM Mars is no nonsense when it comes to the quality of trailer they require.

There is nothing in San Antonio for FFE in my time. However we were hauling loads out of there from the west side with Ronnie Dowdy long ago, two or three trucks at a time going north into the USA.

San Antonio is not that far from Dallas about 5 hours give or take a little bit.

 

It's probably not even that long, depending on what part of Dallas you're driving from, is it even 300 miles?

 

Maybe 260 maybe 270 depending on what part of San Antone you are getting into from Dallas I suppose. Looking at the old Petro as a target destination, it would be even 276 miles or so roughly.

 

That's what I was thinking too. Maybe 4 hrs give or take

 

Labatt Food Service has a hub in San Antonio and hires drivers with only a cdl permit. You'll go through their training process and hit the road with an experienced driver. Food service pays really well and way above a new cdl grad hauling general freight.

If you went with a company other than Labatt, do you have a place to park a truck at home or a safe place nearby?
Many companies let you take the truck home with you.
