Which endorsements are a Must?

edit ..........

 

I think you haven't done your homework yet.. I'm still a wannabe--- but I dont wannabe bent over... do some research...

 

If CRE was my only choice ... I would keep doing what I'm already doing ..

 

TO MAKE MORE MONEY IS GOOD TO HAVE HZ+Tanker (you need tanker endorsement for dryvanlods)

 

Sometimes you are required to stand there and watch, count and pulp it (take it's temperature) and the dock is kept cold.

Knowing what I know now I would say get all the endorsements, except maybe passenger. I say that because after you've been doing this you will have a better idea of the opportunities out there. You may want to try something else besides hauling dry van in a year.

Definitely get the hazmat though. Not all companies pay more for it, but it could get you moving while the guy sitting next to you from the same company might be sitting an extra day because he doesn't have it. I've run a lot of hazmat and none of it was particularly dangerous.

 

you all forgot to mention the fact that he NEEDS a chauffeurs license. You can't be for hire without one. Thats 35 bucks.

 

once you take the fingerprints. it's in the database.

in utah. i went to any office. took the test and renewed. last month. spent a lot of time at the counter though. for whatever reason. might of had something to do with entering the medical information for my new card.

you need tanker for day van?????

unless you worki for a construction company that pulls double bellies you won't need doubles. some of the other companies that pull doubles are usualy better paying jobs. therefore harder to get hired on as not many quit. and i have yet to see any hiring advertisement.
