You can check your state regs for getting your CDL and driving intrastate...barring that...some delivery job...like Pepsi,Coke..etc would be great.. nad they may help you get your CDL when you are old enough !!
CDL:

Phillip...I'd get a job working on their docks, or somewhere in the warehouse...THEN, when you are 21, you already have a "cheek on the seat", for getting to drive their truck....They will hire from within before they bring in a newbie most of the time.

That is an excellent idea. I totally agree with that approach.
You also might find a farmer close by that will let you haul stuff for him. Otherwise you're going to mostly be restricted to things like class B box truck jobs. Not a lot of class A jobs available until you're 21.
You can Look for Log truck, water, forest service fire, ect.... There are jobs for young guys out there. Just gotta think of the less thought about jobs.
