    Sheridan Technical School is an excellent choice.
    Where are you in South Florida?

    I’m in Fort Lauderdale, ideally looking to go OTR flatbed, but open to local.

    I’m in Fort Lauderdale. I don’t mind going to Sheridan, but think it might be easier to get on with a carrier that will train.

    Is it better to just get the license on my own?

    Stevens hires anybody from anywhere. They even hire from Cucamonga!

    Whatever you do. Don't accept a job with BillyBob's Alligator Eatery.

    I should add I am trying to leave Florida. My family is tired of the heat and area and are willing to relocate for the right gig.

    I pulled asphalt out of Toledo for many years...one of my best gigs. Don't forget the PORTS right there, if you're into Intermodal, LoL. Transport National, OD flats, etc.... :)
