Hello, Truckers out there. I've have a question on what is a good Trucking school company out there. That will help pay for your training and so forth. I've been doing a lot of research and youtubing and just rely thinking on what is best for me. I have looked up on C.R. England, Swift and I'm getting a lot of negativity on these two company's. I'm deciding on the two though. I've done some research on Prime and I'm not a huge fan on there application process. I was hoping on Knight but they won't pay for room or transportation if I'm getting this right, then if not please correct me. I'm rely wanting to drive truck and make a living. But I'm having trouble what is a good company that will help me get my cdl and drive for them. So, that I have experience and work for one of my state comapny's. So, if anyone that could help me that will be great, and thank you for your time to do so. And I kinda would like the truth about C.R. England are they rely that bad of company and do they rely do the three man bunk thing?

Hey Travis, Welcome to our forum. I was trained by and work for CFI. They pay your transportation, room and food during the school part of your training as well as orientation.

We also have our starter pack.

The High Road Training is the best way to prepare for your written permit and endorsement tests.

We highly recommend Paid CDL Training Programs. While this list is a bit outdated there is some useful info.

I hope this helps.

Also, check out our Training Diaries section.

Good luck.
