I would think they just reserve one in your name and email you the res# and when you get to the terminal you just give em your name and confirmation #...

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.

When I got mine I was told to drive to the Greyhound terminal and go pick it up. You simply see the clerk and tell then your information and they print out all the ticket information for you. When its your time to hit the road come back again and give them the ticket and you're in!

Unfortunately I have a lot of experience with this. Here's how it always worked for me. They pay for your ticket and email you a confirmation number, then on the day you're leaving you show up at the bus station about an hour early, then you tell the clerk your confirmation number and they look it up in their computer system and print your ticket out for you.

I'd say if the bus terminal is close by grab the ticket b4 departure day,I say this BC in pa we have secondary stops where its a store front who gives tickets also and when ur departure time is b4 they open it becomes a real headache I've been through this once and made sure it didn't happen again.

DAC:

Drive-A-Check Report

A truck drivers DAC report will contain detailed information about their job history of the last 10 years as a CDL driver (as required by the DOT).

It may also contain your criminal history, drug test results, DOT infractions and accident history. The program is strictly voluntary from a company standpoint, but most of the medium-to-large carriers will participate.

Most trucking companies use DAC reports as part of their hiring and background check process. It is extremely important that drivers verify that the information contained in it is correct, and have it fixed if it's not.
