    I'm an oilfield worker and decided to get my CDL just to change things up. I'm not even sure if anyone will have a no-experience CDL job available anymore because drilling has been slowing down in the Bakken. So if that doesn't work out, I want a backup plan and ideally I'd like to live in Denver, CO. What are some good starter companies I could work for while living in the Denver area? I'm 2 weeks into a 4 week course right now, I think Werner has a terminal in Denver but thats all I know of.

    That's a good idea to have a back up plan.Most starter companies are pretty much the same in one way or another so you're not going to find a real good one.The better question to ask is whats the worst companies to stay away from.Werner does have a terminal in Henderson Colorado I think.I like that facility better then the rest of werner terminals.They're more laid back.
