Some large Pennsylvania trucking companies maintain their own Truck Driving Schools. These Pennsylvania trucking companies operated schools can be a good option for responsible individuals who do not have the financial means to pay for a private Pennsylvania truck driving school. Upon satisfactory completion of the program you are employed by the Pennsylvania trucking company that gave you the so called "free" training. The "catch" is that you have to sign a detailed contract before you start training. The contract normally requires you to meet standards at the school and to drive for the company for a specified period of time under specified conditions. If you fail to meet the conditions set forth in the contract, they will make you pay for the training and/or penalties for not fulfilling the contract . . . sometimes as high as $20,000. If you stay healthy and don't have a personal crisis while completing the terms of contract, this can work out just fine. However, in some cases, it has been the financial ruin of many a good man! CAUTION: READ AND UNDERSTAND AND BE PREPARED TO MEET THE CONDITIONS SET FORTH IN THE CONTRACT!

Pennsylvania Truck Driving School tuition can vary from as little as $1500 to about $8000 with an average price somewhere around $4000. IF YOU ALREADY POSSESS A Pennsylvania CDL PERMIT THEY WILL OFTEN DEEPLY DISCOUNT - others require you to possess a Pennsylvania CDL permit and medical card prior to enrollment.

This can be a good option for candidates who already have a job offer based upon obtaining a Pennsylvania CDL and who can afford the up front tuition costs.
