Orientation FAQS:
Where do I have to go?
All new drivers must visit our home office in Carlisle, PA for orientation. We can often bring new Contractors into Carlisle with a load or assist with fuel expense to get to Carlisle.
How long is it?
3 Days: Tuesday, Wednesday, and half a day on Thursday. Drivers are generally ready for dispatch by Thursday afternoon. We use this time as efficiently as possible to accomplish a number of necessary tasks: Truck inspections, road test, paperwork, class room information on operations, maintenance, safety, logs, permits, information, policies, programs, etc.
What’s it like?
All drivers can expect a warm welcome at Carlisle and will stay in a private hotel room for 2 nights paid by Daily Express. Most meals will be covered by Daily Express at a local steakhouse. The classroom training is done in a casual setting where you may ask questions and learn a lot! New drivers will have a chance to meet our CEO and talk about trucking and Daily Express.
Truck Inspections?
We will inspect Contractor trucks and tiedown equipment to make sure it meets our specifications. Inspections are thorough Federal-type inspections.
What Else?
We will arrange DOT required drug screens (at our expense) and DOT physicals if necessary. We will carefully process all or the necessary paperwork to get you on board.
