I am about to attend driving school. I have quit smoking and have no interest in smoking in the future. With that being said, I can not pass a hair follicle test. I live around the Cincinnati OH area and I am looking for companies that will train but do not require hair follicle testing. I will be able to pass urine on my own without cheating. By time I finish school, I will be about 60 days clean. Anyone have any suggestions? No, I can not wait an extra month because I have been out of work for over a month to this point. Honestly, I would prefer to work for a smaller company over the mega companies anyways. I drove in the past from 2002-2012 and let my cdl go when I moved to Ohio in 2014. Thanks for the help.

I don’t know much about this subject, but this thread will probably help:

The trucking community is generally pretty firmly against any type of drug use, so be prepared for some less than pleasant comments. That said, if you are legit planning to stay clean, then all the power to you. Good luck!
Edit: sorry, I thought that thread was longer LOL... but there’s a few good answers on there to get you started.aussiejosh, austinmike and Rev78 Thank this. -
CDL Training | Stevens Transport
Urine test.
With any company or cdl school, exceptions can be made on the Urine test. If a student looks a little shady or acting strange, he or she could still be hair tested. But, no one on this forum, to my knowledge, has been hair tested at Stevens Transport.Crude Truckin', aussiejosh, NightWind and 3 others Thank this. -
@Chinatown thank you. Is Stevens Transport the only company that you are aware of that is like this. I do know Swift, JB, Werner and some of the other big players most definitely do. Like I said, I am attending a private school, so I do not need the license through them. I am aware that Western Express also does just urine but I am very skeptical of them. I'm pretty sure Boyd Brothers also does just urine but I'm not interested in flatbed.

Didn't know you're currently in CDL school.
One new driver in your area just hired on with Western Express dry van.
I wouldn't take any chances since you've been clean only 60 days.
Go with Western dry van as a sure thing or Stevens Transport.
Stick with either one for minimum of 6 mos. before changing companies. This way, you'll test negative.bryan21384, Tolkien, austinmike and 1 other person Thank this. -
if found "hot", they have to kick you out, and you MUST attend a SAP program on your own dime.

I've already passed my pee test for school. I can't believe that there's only 2 maybe 3 training companies that don't do hair follicle test.
