I am I am trying to get back on the road after being off for about 10 years. I still have my Class A CDL and recently took a driver refresher course. I am trying to go back as an owner/operator, I have 15 years of experience as an o/o. I am considering Super Service Transportation, does anyone know anything about them? Or does anyone know what company is good to hire on as o/o without having to go out with a trainer for weeks and then being a company driver for weeks or months after begfore going into my own truck?

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.

If you are trying to become an O/O then you will have your own truck and you will not have to worry about training as its your truck. But it sounds like you will be a lease op and leasing a truck from them or some other suitable company and in that case its a totally different story. Unless you go out and buy your truck then most leasing companies will not lease to anyone without resent driving experience and that means a trainer. No getting around that.

Just make sure you find out the difference between what a owner op and lease op is cause they have two very different business plans and neither will fit the other.
