    Having a hard time finding tanker company's that hire people right out of school. So far the ones I've found are Schneider and Prime. I live in Southern California but willing to relocate anywhere. Any recommendations?

    Thanks in advance.

    @Chinatown can help. Between Schneider bulk and Prime, I'd go for Schneider. Both train well. but in the long run you will likely make more $$ and be in a better position to move up learning the chemical tank business.

    On rare occasion, Coastal Transport in San Diego will hire a new cdl grad.
    Trimac Transportation - runs ads for new cdl grads. They have OTR coast to coast if you're interested in that. Also have local/regional.
    Robertsons Ready Mix - dry bulk cement & fly ash.
    McKenzie Tank Lines
    Bay & Bay Transportation
    CTL Transportation
    Service Transport www.svtn.com
    Superior-Carriers
    UPT-United Petroleum Transports
    Tidewater Transit
    All of the above hire new cdl grads, so ignore any "experience required" on the websites and apply. Most are picky, so just pick the best new cdl grads that apply.

    Try Savage Companies; they usually need people to haul diesel and fuel locomotives.
    Love's Travel Stops (truck stops) - sometimes hires new cdl grads to deliver diesel or DEF to their truckstops. A few drivers have posted on here they were hired right out of school.

    You may have better luck finding a non-haz tanker gig such as food grade etc.
