    Hi everyone. I am ready to enroll in a cdl school in Atlanta, GA and need to know the best company to only work 1 year for to get my experience? I am trying to go from no CDL to an owner operator. I have friends that can get me step deck loads tomorrow. I really need to find a company that of course i can make the most with and that i preferably wouldnt have to ride 6 weeks w an instructor. Thanks and god bless

    Well the big training companies would be your best bet to get your 1 year exp...Just suck it up. I would get real world experience before I'd go o/o just my 2 cents

    Im thinking about Millis Transfer. Their training facility is 30 mins from the house and they have a yard up there you can see from I75. It sounds mostly positive from what i have read in some of these threads.
