So far, my top ideas are May Trucking Company, Gordon Trucking Inc, and Knight Trans. Still doing research on 10 others that I just haven't looked much into lately. Just recently started looking into Watkins & Shepard and thought you might be able to assist me through this journey.

My plan is moving to Denver and attending a private schooling not company sponsored. I figured I could get more knowledge to be a safer driver with more time behind the wheel and in the classroom.

Joe,

I'd be glad to help. Email me and we will either set up a call or exchange a few emails on it. We have a terminal in Denver...and 19 other places. We are on a big push to get drivers and can get you behind the wheel pretty fast if you have a CDL.

Tracy

Shot you a message, I'm unsure on how to read them to be honest. Hope to receive an email soon.

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.

Terminal:

A facility where trucking companies operate out of, or their "home base" if you will. A lot of major companies have multiple terminals around the country which usually consist of the main office building, a drop lot for trailers, and sometimes a repair shop and wash facilities.
