Yeah, Dock'To'Driver (starting in Florida) would probably be ideal, IMHO, for the O/P. Pays rather decent as well, I hear.

Melton Truck Lines - www.meltontruck.com hires new cdl school grads from about anywhere.FlaSwampRat, BubbRubb and G13Tomcat Thank this. -
If you want flatbed and South Dakota I can think of none better than Britton Transport Flatbed division. It is based in Sioux Falls and you would be trained by our very own @MrEd . I work in this division and it is great. I recommend getting your license on your own. Opens up your options a lot.
MrEd, BubbRubb and FlaSwampRat Thank this. -
BubbRubb Thanks this.

Thanks everyone for the advice! You’ve all be more than helpful!
Based on y’all s suggestions I think I’ll pursue the tech school route and try to get on with a good company! The school
Is only $2400, so that’s not too bad!
Again, thanks so much!G13Tomcat, Vic Firth and FlaSwampRat Thank this. -

They helped with job placement, and even followed up with me every few months the first year to make sure it was working out.
You should have no problem hiring on with most carriers with a clean record, though it may take some time to find the company that fits you best.
One more word, Avoid a lease purchase like the plague, at least until you have some years under your belt, then you will better know how some companies can screw you over!
Best of luck driver!G13Tomcat, BubbRubb and FlaSwampRat Thank this.
