    Default Difference between H and X hazmat endorsements?

    First time getting hazmat, and I have to choose between H and X. Is it true that H is the standard hazmat and X is for tanker hazmat?

    I already have a tanker endorsement, but the job I'm doing this for is dry van. Should I apply for the H or the X? I wouldn't mind having the the "extra" endorsement, but is the process more complicated?

    Finding the right trucking company is like finding the right person to marry. I really comes down to finding one whose BS you can put up with and who can put up wih yours.
