You sign a signature loan for the school feom a loan company. Then companies will pay your monthly payments as long as you work for them till loan is payed off. Thats what swift did it back in 96 . Now they will deduct your payment each month the first year. Thenthe 2nd year they will reimburse each monthly payment back. So essentually, if you last the 2 years, the school will be free. If you quit the first year is up you will owe the balance. Hope this helps

Find a trucking company you want to work for. Then decide how to get the license. You can sign over 1-2 years of your life for "free training" or get a loan to pay for school. The companies w/ "free training" often pay less to driver. The CDL schools will find a way to get you a loan if you need one. The most important thing is a good employer. If you join a bad company it's easy to wind up in a downward spiral, no miles or shady runs, accident or fired, work for a worse company. All companies are not alike. Your ability to earn money and stay in trucking depends on working for non bottom-feeder companies.

What companies gives you a contract? In most cases you are taking out a loan for school. The company then Decides how they are going to reimburse you. Also...you can work for a so called bottom feeder and still make money. I know there is alot of drivers who drive for swift that has 6 or more yrs. Some are members of this site. Its all in your attitude and ability to get the job done. No company is perfect.derekdbeck Thanks this.
