Hi guys. Im about to go through CDL school at 45 years old. Changing careers to something more interesting. I’ll be paying my own way through school. Anyone know of any good companies near Chattanooga that take on new CDL drivers? Thanks in advance.
Good companies near Chattanooga for newbies?

I'm originally from the Murfreesboro area myself. I'm in Memphis now. Covenant is there as well. I started with Western Express in Nashville. The flatbed side is probably more productive for a rookie if you go there. You don't have to be limited to only Chattanooga based companies, there are really good ones everywhere that will take you on. @Chinatown is also from Tennessee originally, he has a bunch of options for good companies.

The best company to work for will be the one that you start up.
If you just want to work for a someone else then you have to decide what type of trucking you think you would like.
Dry Van's, Refrigerated, Flatbed, Tanker witch one of these do you think you would like?feldsforever Thanks this. -
