Easy CDL Licensing Question

I don't see a problem getting Haz-Mat added as long as you have all the TSA stuff completed!

 

You may as well shoot your shot at tanker and doubles while your at it

 

Tanker and doubles/triples are easily passable. Haz Mat takes some studying

 

Get the tanker. Hauling loaded containers over 119 gallons requires that endorsement

 

What about clearance? I think you’ll need to be fingerprinted. Not sure how the process works.

 

I've considered adding hazmat to my CDL, as it's up for renewal in February. I'm out of AZ, so the first thing I need to do is go down and take the hazmat test and then make an appointment with the TSA for fingerprinting, after filling out the online TSA application for hazmat. After the clearance letter is mailed, I'll take it to the motor vehicle dept and get the hazmat endorsement added to my CDL. This is how it's done in AZ, your state may be different.

 

90% of the hazmat test is remembering the order or ISHP
Identification number
Shipping name
Hazard class
Packing group
In that order they ask variations of that question. and little stuff like where per work should be stored, how to transport it.
