    These 2 companies are offering me paid training with a commitment of about 1 year after completing their schooling. I've done some research on each but would like to hear from driver's already on the road as to their opinions. Just looking for some real world feedback to help me decide on one or the other. Thanks to all that reply.

    Hopelink and Goodwill Industries both will pay for cdl school, free to you.
    That's a tough choice; CRST or CR England. I'm afraid I'd choose CRST.
    Does Stevens Transport hire in your area? Call and ask. Stevens would probably be better than those two.

    You can do better than either one of those bottom feeders. Use the search option here and listen to @Chinatown.

    That's probably the best one; Jim Palmer Trucking in Missoula, Montana.
    Another is Jones Bros. Trucking, also in Missoula, Montana.

    If I HAD to pick one of those two only. I'd pick crst. But I will if I was sending my kid or a friend to a company school. Neither one of them would be on my list.

    CRST, would be the better option. But, unless you have something really bad on your record that limits these as your only options, you should consider doing more research. CR England only pays .14 cpm while Prime pays .42 cpm and also has a training program
    , I/d hate to see you make a bad move and be back on here 3 months from now talking about how you got screwed.
