    I might choose prime for obvious reasons im gonna mention, I originally wanted Halvor Lines but due to my current financial situation and being THC clean for 4 Months, ive heard you can fail hair follicle tests 8+ clean. I haven't found anything on Halvor Lines which was my original choice a Terminal close to home. I don't wanna lose a career before I start it, any help would be appreciated. Also its important for the industry to know how we feel about such things.

    @@JoJo-hi2fx Yeah its possible, I'd recommend shaving your whole body haha head too cause, why not? anything you've touched will remain in hair for a long time even if it stops growing into your hair. I'm with you bro, it seems discouraging, but id recommend watching Truck N Hustle's videos, learn as much as you can about logistics and others mistakes. I've been non stop watching videos trying to learn best ways to get under my own authority. Look into "Lease to Own" places for trucks, this one checks for credit, but the next two don't, here's the list Prime won't test for hair, but never call a company they will tell you hair follicle. I know a famous youtuber that called Halvor Lines and the recruiter said its only piss, but I have a few confirms on Prime being better for that, also Prime Inc has a 50k trainer program that will prepare you. Or save get your cdl and own authority. BandmanKevo has a box truck video that shows you everything you need to get started, get your boc-3, UCR, dot numbers, everything you need for your LLC, go do it for free don't pay someone to fill out simple paperwork. I'm currently waiting on pending charges to clear, even tho they were dropped the justice system decided to bring me back to court even tho they through it out so i'm stuck in Kentucky which isn't my home state.

    I really want to go to Prime Inc after getting my permit! I want ALL THE TRAINING I CAN GET!! I can tough out the rooming with a stranger in a small space for a long period of time if it benefits my experience in the long run! I want all the practice and experience in my training phase as I can get. A lot of these companies may pay more or whatever, but they usually only do 2-3 weeks with a trainer and then they let you go and I wouldn't feel confident nor ready to be on my own in that short amount of time. So, I am praying that Prime Inc takes me after getting my permit

    I did a year and half local at coke then moved to regional hauling potatoes, never hauled a 53ft, never drove a sleeper. I’m almost a year with them and I’m in a glider 389 13spd, and I’ve averaged about .85 a mile since I started. Home about 5-6 nights a week with two days off on weekends. Honestly the best paying jobs that have the best benefits are small local companies imo.

It’s definitely a good place to start if you don’t have much experience. It’s physically demanding, but if you’re happy with 60-80k a year, it can be good. After a year or two, you’ll get on an established route, so you know pretty much every day what you’re doing. It’s good if you have young kids.

That may or may not hold true. You’re generally starting around 3-5 am and most days I was back by 3-4. You’ll have your longer and shorter days. If you have a good manager, you’ll load heavy Monday-Wednesday, and Thursday and Friday will be lighter. I also found working at a satellite, or drop yard, was better because you typically have only a 10-15 drivers, and your relationship with your coworkers, and manager, are better.

I am currently enrolled in an alternative teaching program to teach Spanish, but as I will be waiting a year to get into the classroom, I've decided to get my CDL. A company will be paying for my training and I will be creating videos during the process and sharing as much as I can for everyone else out there interested in driving! I begin on the 31st, so feel free to connect with me regarding anything! Take care.

    I did a frito lay apprenticeship program. They pay and send you to a cdl school and while your at cdl school and until your finished with training you get a guaranteed $1300 a week as long as you don't miss any days. Some of its hard work when you have to unload your truck but it's worth it. We just got a bump to 62 cents per mile and get case pay for cases we unload. I average $1500 - $1800 a week. After you get some seniority you get better runs. Home nightly and if you end up picking a run thats an overnight they give you a clc card and you can stay in a hotel. No need to sleep in the truck which is a bonus. Guys who have been here for 5 years are pulling 6 figures easy. I'm on track to make 85k this year alone which is pretty good fresh out of cdl school. But you gotta be willing to put in that work 💪

    Worked for Prime and Wilson. Recommend Prime over Wilson but both companies are cool. Wilson doesn’t have the same driver comforts that Prime does ( wright weight, navigation, app, macros, etc… not to mention terminals) and you won’t make quite as much with them. Other than that they both were good companies to drive for as with most companies your driver/fleet mgr makes the difference. Was lease with both but also did company with prime.

    Do you know what the schools do for their dot physicals? If I have a dot physical already I read prime does another one day 1 of the school. I was told I am pre diabetic, no blood sample. Do the Schools do a blood sample or just urine for the physical? If you are diabetic do they send you home? how does this work?

Besides Western Express do you know any Starter Companies that give Urine Drug Test ONLY because I've been doing my research and it seems a lot of starter companies do Hair and Urine test and I probably won't be able to pass a hair test for another 3 months. Do I have any other options?

    You need some kind of authorization to work like green card, work permit, etc…Go through commercial driving school for 3 weeks to 6 weeks depending on the school. And then find a company that will hire you for further road training about 1 month yo 2 months. The process is a bit intense but not too hard and it takes about 3 months before you become a professional truck driver. But you need 1 to 2 years of driving to gain experience as a truck driver.
