Schneider won't except AZ students, got any ideas

This is one of the responces I believe I was looking for. A bit none conventional but another way to approach the problem. Once I figure it all out companies will probably be laying drivers off.

Thanks

 

I heard that one of the reasons SNI may not take on Arizona student drives is because after an Arizona driver gets their CDL permit, Arizona MVD will only except training from a facility in the state of Arizona.



With this, and along with the info I have received here, this thread could be closed. Only if I knew how close it.

Thanks to those who have helped.

 

I'm not sure what your asking. are you asking about dirt work, trucking or Kingman or all of it? I'll just tell what I can about this area.

Why do you want out of Vegas? I lived there from 2003 to 2005. Personally I hated it. It was a theiving, dirty, **** hole. Filled with 'diversity which is perversity' as Micheal Savage say's. Looks like a foreign country, actually looks like the city of Babal might have looked. You know the city in the bible. It's just plain sickening to me.

Just so happens that Rhodes Homes was just approved yesterday by the county board of supervisors for his developement here in Golden Valley. I believe the project is about 9,000 acres, but he owns much more all over here. Rhodes now has to get approval from Arizona Corporations Commission. After this he will probably continue his project.

Rhodes has all his earth moving equipment parked on hwy 68 the main hwy going through Golden Valley from Kingman 15 mi. east to Laughlyn 15 mi. west. I can see when he moves the equipment. The other day I saw them moving equipment. I have not seen any activity there in a year or so. If it means he's starting up again, I can't say. The dirt outfit is called Pinnecal. When they were working they supposedly had 75 employees.

Just to give you a little more info on the area, to help build your own picture of whats going on here, about 2 years ago Wal-Mart bought 145 acres for a distribution center on I 40 just south of Rhodes developement a couple of miles. Wal-Mart was going to hire 500-750 employees. My guess is that many would buy homes at Rhodes. Wal-Mart decided not to continue the project because the contractors wanted to much to build, so they said. This was when things were booming every where. Now costs have dropped but nothing more has been done. Although they did pay for their water connection, $250,000, just about 4-6 mos ago. Rhodes also owns thousands of acres all around this area too, on and around I-40. The area is called the Griffith Industrial Park.

what we may have is a relationship between Wal-Mart, Rhodes and the Hoover Dam Bridge. Hmmmmmm?

There was a rumor that an intermodle was going to be built in the Griffith area also. But it was just a rumor.

It seems to me that both companies are in no hurry to move there projects do to the economy. More importantly I'm guessing they are waiting for the Hoover Dam By Pass bridge to be complete.

They are also going to increase the size of the hwy from Hoover Dam, south about 14 miles to White Hills, AZ. There's nothing in White Hills but Rose's Cafe. There are lots for sale and a few manufactured homes. (Mardian owns 34,000 acres in this area and he has made improvements about $30 million in improvements, roads and wells). This project will be a major project. The area has alot of mountians the whole way which will require massive dirt moving and numorous bridges. I'm suprised your don't know about this project. They should be staring on this anytime now.

Prices have dropped all over the area which would be good for you if you can get a job.

Oh, one more thing. A copper mine is having a job fair today in Kingman. The mine is in the Chloride area just off of Hwy 93. I beleive they are paying around $20.00 an hr. Understand the wages run around $8-$17.00 in this area when hiring is going on. It is much cheaper to live here, houses are cheaper, land is cheaper, taxes seem to be half of what they are in Vegas and so cal. In vegas my taxes on a 300k house would have been around $300 a mo.. In Golden Valley I pay $364.00 a year on an $89,000.00 property. I'm guessing if one had a $300k house here they might pay around $1,200.00 a year, a considerable differance from vegas and so cal.

Update: I went to a job fair for the Mineral Park Mine/copper mine, yesterday and the construction company building there plant (a different company). They are hiring for entry level workers at the mine. The starting pay is $12.00 per hr. I don't know what the pay is for the construction company. I will find out if I can.

I've taken up to much space here. If you have more questions I'll try to help ans. them.

Hope this helps.
