    How old are you? The reason I ask is because companies have minimum age requirements, but no maximum age limit.

    OK, you're good to go with any company.
    Give CFI a try; the company has an excellent reputation.

    You don't need a cdl; they send you to cdl school. You can apply on the website. They pay for everything, meals, transportation, hotel room.
    "With a 12-month commitment to drive for CFI, qualified students can now receive fully paid tuition to attend driving school in Missouri. We’ll even cover your room and board for the duration of the four-week course."
    A qualified candidate will possess the following**:
    • 21 years of age or older
    • Have the right to work and live in the United States
    • Be willing to travel throughout all 48 contiguous states and Canada for two to three weeks at a time
    • Be willing to attend an CFI–approved truck driving program with a partner school and ability to provide diploma
      or certificate of completion from truck driving program
    • CFI pays for transportation to the school plus meals and hotel room. The school is free to you if you agree to work for CFI for 12 months.
