There are tons of companies that train, and companies love teams because they make more money for the companies.

You and your husband will both need, to go to school, for insurance reasons. I hear swift is decent for Husband/Wife Teams and they can train him first, then train you for free afterward and he can train you out on the road....


You do your laundry either at truck stops/ laundry mats/ or your companies terminal (Depending on the company). And you can either eat in truck stops or find a restaurant to go to, or better yet learn to cook out of your truck to save allot of money and stay healthy. Same with showers they are located inside truck stops, there free when you buy 50 gallons or more of diesel from the truck stop (At most truck stops) otherwise its $10.


Good Luck!

There's a good thread in the Drivers health section about healthy eating in the truck. If you can get a fridge and a microwave then you can eat really well, but even with a crockpot its manageable. just takes a little planning ahead to run by a wally world and stock up.
