I forgot about the hazmat, the rest wouldn't be to much to make work.
I never bothered with hazmat.

Cdl license now is full on school and $$$ . Also i dont have a need for a tank to be mobile daily this big . I can do my 500 on truck and 550 on trailer and that would be HUGE for a days work on a lot . Most i have done is 700 - 750 in a day .

Well I did it for the cost of the license here which was $36 but I had access to a truck and trailer to practice and take the test.
I have sent a bunch of people to trucking school for free through the EDD, as long as there's a shortage of drivers they will pay for training you.

Used to not be that hard. They changed stuff a few years back. Not sure how many.
Now there's more too it.
My cousin spent some time in prison.
When he got out he had federal people helping him through all of it, so he could get started and working.
Still cost him the 5k.
He already knew how to drive as his dad, his brother, my grandpa, and our other uncle all own trucking companies. Lol.
I should have went through the process of getting the CDL years ago. Just to have it. But at that time I wanted to stay as far away from a semi as I could.

Never thought about the future dream I had of operating heavy equipment and dump trucks. Then hauling same.

I wanted to start a side gig delivering trailers, equipment, and campers to people from a few local dealerships. But I don't know if I want to go through the hoops now lol.




How big of a lot would 1000 gallons of sealer do?
