Transfer CDL To Illinois
Topic 28694 | Page 1
You may have to go to a school that can offer a truck and third party testing. A quick Google search does that advantage driver training in joilet offers out of state license conversions.
Like Banks said find a CDL school near you most offer it as a service, as well as a course on what IL wants we are very strict here.
CDL:
Commercial Driver's License (CDL)
A CDL is required to drive any of the following vehicles:
- Any combination of vehicles with a gross combined weight rating (GCWR) of 26,001 or more pounds, providing the gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of the vehicle being towed is in excess of 10,000 pounds.
- Any single vehicle with a GVWR of 26,001 or more pounds, or any such vehicle towing another not in excess of 10,000 pounds.
- Any vehicle, regardless of size, designed to transport 16 or more persons, including the driver.
- Any vehicle required by federal regulations to be placarded while transporting hazardous materials.
Welcome to Illinois! We do things differently here. If we can figure out how to seperate you from your money, and get most of it in our pockets, we will be happy to have you as one of our residents.
Yea illinois is special for sure im from their aswell. Advantage driver training out of joliet is where I got my license. They do care their, I believe they offer refreshers and you test on site the dmv comes to the school.
Not affiliated or anything just sharing my experience and knowledge.
I also was eligible to use a debt of labor grant their.
Good luck

Dispatcher, Fleet Manager, Driver Manager
The primary person a driver communicates with at his/her company. A dispatcher can play many roles, depending on the company's structure. Dispatchers may assign freight, file requests for home time, relay messages between the driver and management, inform customer service of any delays, change appointment times, and report information to the load planners.DMV:
Department of Motor Vehicles, Bureau of Motor Vehicles
The state agency that handles everything related to your driver's licences, including testing, issuance, transfers, and revocation.
I got mine through Star ( now a 160 Driving academy) in Bensenville, they offer a course to help with out of state transfers. Illinois wants everything done and said a certain way so it might be worth looking into.
John Wood Community College in Quincy, IL. offers a refresher. I think it was around $300.00. You get 10 hours of instructor time and use of a truck and trailer for the CDL test. They are all manuals, mostly 10 speeds.

That would be a great price, from my viewpoint. $30 an hour, a CDL instructor, plus their truck and trailer to use for the test? That sounds like money well spent to get a license transferred.
I think I would investigate that option, Joseph C.
