First and foremost, you must get a driver's license for the kind of vehicle you intend to use for delivery work. A regular but still valid driver's license will be taken into consideration for delivery driving employment if you plan to use a light goods vehicle truck for your deliveries.
However, if you want to drive a heavy goods vehicle truck, you must have a commercial driver's license. I would advise getting a state-issued ID card or a passport as a bare minimum, as you are legally obligated to provide evidence of identification to any new employment. A state ID can be obtained without a diving license.
To increase your work options, get your Class A CDL and, at the very least, the tanker endorsement. The hazmat and doubles/triples endorsements are advantages, however, the majority of trucking businesses that want these two endorsements also demand more years of experience.
Driving a commercial vehicle is the only experience that trucking firms would accept, with a preference for local or long-distance driving. There is absolutely no other option, but thankfully, many businesses recruit drivers with no prior experience.
I've been trying to obtain my class A license for over a year now. I have my permit I have completed the ELDT courses and now I'm stuck. I have a family and a full time job and I'm the only one working. I'm having trouble finding grants or financial aid and my permit will expire in about 4 months.
