What’s the best route to go if I don’t habe my CDL? Numerous schools offer no cost training, but you have to give them a year or so of your life. I live in Mississippi, close to KLLM, but am willing to go to another state for a better opportunity.
Thanks
Millis Transfer, Swift, Werner, CR England, to name a few.
they all basically make you sign a contract to work for them for 1 year.
if you leave before your contract expires, they can make you pay all the costs involved, and if you don't pay, they can ding your credit report, and also, mark it on your DAC file, "not rehirable", which can make it that much more difficult to get another job.
there is no real free ride, you either pay to go to a private CDL school, or you sign a contract.
i should point out too, that if you honor the contract, "some" of these companies, consider that "payment in full", and you owe nothing more.
some however, deduct monies from your weekly paychecks, until it is paid off.
best of luck to you, my best advice, go to a private CDL school, and let them help you get a student loan, then you payback the bank...
