Greetings from Oregon

Gordon does hire students but only from preapproved schools..

you would need to contact them for more info

 

Hey there Bucky,I drive through Seaside from time to time in the truck and every Summer on the Harley.
I live in SW Washington but I'm an Orygun native, great place to live even though it's been overrun with libtards from Cali.
As stated above Gordon does hire students from approved schools, I went to IITR in Clackamas and would recommend them to anyone.
They also have a school in Albany but either way a good school.
My current gig has me hauling from Warrenton just up the road from you every day,Walsh will hire with one year experience so it's a close to home option that will get you home daily.
I drive out of Kalama,WA and haul my loads from Kalama up to Auburn,WA (near Tacoma) and get a back haul usually to Longview then drop my trailer back in Warrenton for the night crew to load and bring back to Kalama for me so I can leave there in the morning loaded.
I usually also get a back haul from Warrenton to Longview or one to drop in Kalama, keeps me moving loaded all day pretty much.
We have a handful of trucks in Warrenton working both day and night so it's something to think about, it's only 15-20 minutes from Seaside to Warrenton.
Oh,forgot to mention it's woodchip hauling from the Hampton lumber mill, I mostly haul shavings in a live floor trailer but there are plenty of chips coming out of that mill ,we also haul from a mill in Tillamook.
Anyways,welcome to the PAC NW and good luck.

Here you can see the mill by the Skipanon river and zoomed up some of our trucks/trailers parked at the entrance of the mill.

 

If you're in the hiring area, James J. Williams would be a good company. They're on the trans-system website and hire out of DTS CDL school and a few other good schools.

Did you ever visit the museums and other sites in Olongapo when you were in the Navy?

 

I was joking about Olongapo! I was a wild sailor back in those days and no regrets as far as liberty time. Best wishes in your new career.

 

If you know Tacoma then I haul to a place in Auburn near the Casino and usually get a back haul from Simpson lumber at Com. Cay port of Tacoma.

Here's how a live or actually a walking floor works.
