I currently have a Chauffeurs' license and would really be interested in expedited freight. I would like to start out in a van and possibly work my way up. My question is, am I likely to find a fleet owner willing (or legally able to) let me drive a cargo van for them? I would like to have a CDL "C" and my own van to run but, sadly, my finances won't permit that kind of step at the moment. I don't have a family to support so that is a plus (or at least I think it is...).
Another question... I have a friend who also posesses a chauffeurs' license and is also interested in expiditing. We have discussed running as a team but from our understanding of things we would need at least a CDL "C" to drive anything beyond a cargo van, are we right in this assumption or..? I know even if we were able to drive a van as a team the money wouldn't be much if it was something that was even possible.
At this point I'm just tossing around ideas and gathering information, any help is appreciated. Thanks ahead of time!
