| Our drivers deserve and expect the best! |
All drivers are required to:
- Be properly licensed to drive commercially "for hire." If you have a valid CDL license, your license is good for all divisions. If you do not and want to drive single-pull towables, then the type of license required is determined by the state your license is issued from. In some states, your regular driver's license will suffice, but several have special endorsements or licenses that are required to drive for hire. Most of these special license requirements are inexpensive and simple to get. Below is a list of states that have known special licensing requirements, but it is your responsibility to ensure you are properly licensed by your state.

What is requirment to use your trucks? Is it rent or lease? Or just use them as company truck?
ReplyDeleteWe do have some company trucks. They rent, not lease, and it is a temporary arrangement. Although the end rate per mile is somewhat lower, the company instead of the driver is responsible for costs like maintenance, tires, and registration. This is a great way for a driver who is considering becoming an owner operator to test the industry and see if this type of work is a good fit for him or her.
