I am interested in driving bulk truck. I have 6 months experience. but havent driven for about a year.

would Schneider be a good company to drive for?
I am based out of Denver.

also I would need a refresher course I guess if they require it, would I have to sign the 18 month contract, since I already have my CDL?

Just a update. I decided to pass on the expediter truck gig and go with Schneider for Bulk. Will be done with STA here in Carlisle on Friday, then 2 days bulk soecific training in Coraopolis PA next Sat & Sun.

Everything going good except it's taking me longer than I expected to get used to getting up on the cat walk. Never had a problem with heights, maybe it's just my age and lack of youthful flexibility!

I still don't have the actual criteria as to what determines who goes into what training (except for people without a CDL) and have to sign the agreement. My shifting and backing were somewhat rusty, but I've been helping supposedly experienced drivers and recent CDL grads with map reading, trip planning and QualComm homework. So go figure.

For convoykris, best bet would be to talk to a recruiter. He or she could best answer your question.
