IIRC, the O/P got his CDL years ago, and has a problem with the diesel fumes, and such.
I know of NONE in Ohio, and I'm here. Not yet, anyway ... also, doesn't mean there 'aren't' any!!

I want to work for a trucking company that runs on only natural gas or electric. Does anyone know of any green trucking companies hiring in Columbus, Oh?
Gute Fahrt!!
Our friend Marc Lee posted in his diary for Veriha that the training truck he was in ran on CNG. I'm not sure if thats only a few trucks or their entire fleet, or if you're in their hiring area but its worth looking into. I've also seen UPS has some.
I've seen both Ruan and UPS with CNG tractors.
I've seen natural gas trucks running out of budweiser in St Louis, maybe some also run out of Columbus?
Thanks fellas.
Did you find (or decide on) anything? Just wondering.
