A normal cycle is two weeks of driving and then home. You pull dry van freight from Denver east and stay out of the Northeast. Some loads are drop and hook, some are preloaded, and some are live. Weekend driving is part of it, and holidays are your call.
How you get from new CDL to soloAfter a short orientation of two days at most, with lodging covered and your bus ticket reimbursed, you ride with a mentor for 3 to 5 weeks, about 200-250 hours. You learn backing, trip planning, logs and fueling on real freight. Then you get your own assigned truck, about 1.5 years old on average, with an automatic or a 10-speed.
