    When will you be 21 yrs. old?
    KLLM trains in Mississippi.
    They do a hair follicle drug test, so you need to be clean 12 months.

    In that case, if you want to start sooner, you'll have to attend a private cdl school. Check the WIOA Program in Mississippi for free tuition.

    Make sure there's no pot in your system.
    KLLM does hair follicle drug test, so you need to be clean 12 months.
    Prime Inc. does urine drug test, so you need to be clean 90 days.
    Take your pick.

    I don't do drugs nor drink alcohol. Still have to be 21 to go to either right?

    Yes, 21 for Prime and KLLM.
    Some private schools will take you as young as 18.
    Some household goods movers hire drivers as young as 18 to drive within the state.
    Here's one near you and there may be more:
    Mississippi Van Lines Inc
    201 George St
    Greenwood, MS 389
    Probably have to help pack household goods and load/unload trucks and maybe some in-state driving until you're 21.

    Here's a map of Mississippi Van Lines service area: They also use tractor trailers, but couldn't find any pictures. Maybe they contract with other moving outfits such as Coven or Allied & many others.
