Getting experience as a trucker
by: Hervy

Anono

has a pretty good suggestion man, if nothing else call around to other non-profits too that collect stuff which needs to be hauled but don't need regular drivers and see if the can use your services, free if you have too. (I know you still need to make bread)

Just to put that trucking experience on your resume.
You can get a list of organizations from your local chamber of commerce and they will list all the volunteer or non-profits in your area.

Work there when you are free from what ever paying work you find if its not driving truck.

Trucking Jobs for Felons with No Experience
by: Hervy

Man, as you know things are exactly booming but they are picking up. You might want to try checking some of the companies that pop up on the Trucking Jobs for Felons page. And try advice from that page.

Your just going to have to make a bunch of phone calls and tell them what you got and see what they say.

I did get 1 lead but I still got to get the number because the guy didn't have it, will get back with ya.
