Roehl Transport might be your dream. They have a training program, and they’ll even cover your tuition costs.

Hey there! 🚚 If you’re just starting out, check out Prime Inc. They offer paid training, and rumor has it they’ve got a soft spot for rookies.

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 went through a local road construction company that ran side dumps. They told me if I went and got my CLP, they’d hire me and pay for my actual CDL. Then again, that was also before the bullshit truck school requirement.

The big tarp they have you lift is actually 120lbs. With a little practice I'm sure you could do it. Pulling yourself up onto the side of the trailer would probably be more challenging. I've heard of them letting really short people just climb onto the back of the trailer, but I'm not sure.

Literally any mega. You found TMC, look along those avenues. Schneider, Swift, C.R. England, Prime, Maverick, Melton, etc etc.

I would recommend Wilson Logistics or Prime. Most of the other mega carriers are all the same shit. Stay away from CR England and CRST like your life depends on it.
