    I don't know where Swift Refrigerated trains; Fontana, CA or West Valley, UT.
    Either way Swift and Wilson Logistics pays for transportation to get to the school, plus meals and lodging while there.

    That’s Swift. Personally I’d go to Wilson way before Swift.

    So I've been reading the DMV commercial drivers handbook, along with using the app that @HiramKingWilliams recommended. So far so good, I feel like I am able to retain the information. I have also been taking the practice quizzes from this site. But I did have a question, are the questions asked on the practice tests/quizzes directly from the DMV test?

    Recently obtained my permit along with my tanker, double/triples and hazmat endorsements. I still need to finger print, which I’ll most likely take care of next week. Gonna consider getting on with a company that offers CDL training. Recently applied for Reddaway and Old Dominion. We’ll see what happens.

    That should work out for you. Yellow is bringing Reddaway into their fold which is a good thing.

    Was offered a position as a linehaul driver out of the Orange terminal in CA yesterday. Background already cleared. Did my drug screen today, along with my Live Scan fingerprinting. Appreciate all the help guys. Training class starts mid April.
