    What part of MN are you in Noob. If its minneapolis area, call the Star Tribune.
    They will hire without a CDL, to drive only weekends. In fact, after a few months, they will train for a CDL A or B.
    Delivering papers to commercial accounts. College students are very accepted there.

    Thanks for asking. Yea there is. I drive my own truck on loads I choose. I get calls from people I do biz from time to time. Sounds like James Bond stuff. I wish. I have a trailer I carry human remains in. Reefer. Mostly murder & suicide to their loved ones. 24' plain white trailer. Has to be done, I understand and provide the service. No details, that would be tacky. I do it for less than a Funeral home. Providing there is more than one loved one. Lots of deaths in Houston. Don't like it, but that's how it is. multiple drops. Weird thing, need a chouffers license to transport remains but not a cdl. Go figure.

    I always wondered, trailers have Fish, or Meat decals, Wonder why mine don't need one. Not trying to be ugly.
