Future Class B driver

I can't help you with suggestions for employment. However i'm curious as to why you want to go through this whole process of getting an B CDL. With an A CDL you can still operate class B vehicles (not buses School or otherwise) and you might land a great job driving an class A vehicle. The testing only involves 1 additional test and the driving test has a bit more to it. I'm not saying your wrong. I'm just wondering.

 

Unless your driving School bus go get your class A; a lot more jobs open up.

 

hey brother go get your class a. Doubles triples hazmat ...write now you should be knocking on yrc door sand j bunt last mile with your class b mayb just mayb you can get a job at ups great helath ins for you wife children

 

If you can't afford to attend a trucking school like All State...or don't want to be committed a year to a Mega Carrier...you might want to look into an LTL or Foodservice company that has an apprenticeship program or dock to driver program.

Google LTL companies around Harrisburg. FedEx Freight and FedEx Express has apprenticeship programs where they'll pay for your CDL. You'll have to start off on the docks though. Same with YRC, Estes Express Lines, A Duie Pyle, ABF, ODFL, etc., etc.

Many Foodservice companies will help you get your CDL too. McLane Foodservice has they're own training academy. Pepsi and Coke is known to help get your CDL too.

If you wanna go the Non CDL route, try looking at UPS, USPS, FedEx Express and DHL for Package delivery driver. Stay away from the so called independent contractor scam that FedEx Ground or many of the Bread Truck Companies like Flowers Foods use. You can also check out Bread and Chip companies like Bimbo Bakeries, Frito Lay, Wise Chips, etc., to become a Route Sales Driver. And many Foodservice DSD (Direct Store Delivery) us Non CDL Straight Trucks. Try looking into the various Foodservice companies out there like US Foods, Sysco, McLane, GFS, etc., or Nestle, Jack & Jill Ice Cream, Dietz & Watson, maybe Pepsi and Coke, Milk Haulers like Dean Foods, Dairy Pure, Tuscan, HP Hood, Penn Maid, Clover Farms, Crowley, Rosenberger, Lehigh Valley, etc. Good luck.

 

Before I invested money I would check out a tech school. Just saying check into all aspects of this. You might well thank yourself for doing it.
