    A lot of them do, but there are some good options for 21 year olds as well, and some at 22. I'l have my local class A experience built up over 2 years by that time. I kno most preffer some otr experience, but it will be a good start either way.

    i think that is a misnomer .....the insurance companies want 23 i think most of these bottomfeeders would air up the seats extend the pedals and hire blind 12 yr olds for the summer if they could get em insured just saying

    Some of those bottom feeders are self insured. It has more to do with limiting liability in their cases.

    I've recommended this to others and it works. Try online applications.
    Google : truck driver jobs ( one application to each website & they will send it to all refrigerated companies, they represent, that you are qualified for)

    Definitely check out Maverick, they'll hire at 21, and they're an awesome company to work for.

    I looked up (SRT) and they did not have any kind of training for newbies that I could see. Just min. of 8 months otr experiance was all that I saw. I am thinking of Stevens Transport myself but after seeing some recent forums about a few things I am starting to have second thoughts now. So I am still looking for other options if anybody has anything.
