I'm first week of trucking school looking for a good company

Where is your location, so we know the hiring area you live in.

 

No trucking companies there...

 

Good location; plenty of good companies to choose from:
West Side Transport - dry van
Abilene Motor Express - 72 mph trucks/dry van and refrigerated trailers.
Contract Freighters Inc.- dry van in Joplin,MO(www.cfidrive.com)
Freymiller - refrigerated/hires new cdl grads through their "Restore Program" on the website. Coast to coast trucking.
Transport National - flatbed/Strafford & Joplin,MO/hiring new cdl grads at all terminals.
Western Dairy Transport - milk tankers/Cabool,MO
Britton Transport - flatbed/van/reefer to choose from.
Dynamic Transit - coast to coast refrigerated trucking/"The Dynamic Transit service area is all of the lower 48 states. Core business is focused around the Midwest, Southeast, Western Plains and West Coast. Have locations in St. Louis, Kansas City, Denver and Los Angeles."
Paul Transportation - flatbed
Keim TS - flatbed
Navajo Express - coast to coast refrigerated trucking.

 

You can apply now; don't have to wait until graduation.

 

If You want tankers? Go directly to tankers, pass go and collect your $200. dont waste your time with anything else. Plenty of companies looking for tank drivers

 

My two cents would be get your experience with a dry van or a flatbed, tankers are a different type of animal and I'm not implying you won't be able to handle it but it really does require a skill.
Good luck

 

My2 cents is go for tankers NOW, He has no bad habits to break.
Tankers are not hard at all, Really easy to learn and great money to start
