Hamrick Truck Driving School

Most of the instructors had a bad attitude and seem like they didn’t want to be there. One slept while in the truck with you. It was a very childish environment with gossip and BS. I would definitely not recommend. Especially the long program. The last 3 weeks you don’t learn anything you are just clocking hours. 7:45-5:15 5 days a week for 3 months is ridiculous for getting your CDL.

“Vroom, vroom!” - literally every truck This place is pretty neat. They have a pretty good curriculum and pleasant staff.

had a great experience at Hamrick and am now making more money then I ever thought I would! Out of the kitchens and into a truck! Well worth the price of the school, thank you Hamrick! Teachers are awesome and hilarious, I miss messing with Don and Greg. If you're thinking about going to Hamrick, DO IT!

Thank you so much for all the help!! I’ve learned so much from Hamrick. Instructors are all fantastic and very knowledgeable. Great career to get into. Fun environment to learn in. Two thumbs up. Couldn’t ask for more. THANK YOU!! It's been 6 months now since I got my CDL. I'm making great money and I'm very happy. Driving a truck takes a lot of work, but it's all worth it!! If you're willing to work hard, it will pay off. Wish I did this sooner. $$

Just graduated here. The equipment will definitely get you prepared for the industry. Most of the yard trucks had no functioning clutch just grind it till it goes. Had a steering wheel center section fly off and hit me while doing manuevers. Soo when your done you should be able to drive anything. Evening classes are a pain being the lighting in the yard absolutely sucks. Try finding cones in the dark through a convex mirror. Received very little instruction through yard time. In their defense was told i was doing fine and didnt need it. Ok ill bite. The manager does a pretty good job juggling his duties and playground mediator since most of the other instructors would sit and gossip about their personal lives, insulting students, and doing a fantastic job of telling us what not to do after we do it but not so much what to do before. Primary goal is successfully applied, being the test. Pretrip was, for me learn from other students. Classroom time was an absolute joke. Teacher spent more time telling us we should be glad we were not on days, because how bad the daytime instructor was, than teaching. We would be given a map routing test and not given an idea as to what route to take. Would pick a route that we would prefer and was just told nope wrong route. Only in passing from another student asking her one on one but luck having good hearing did i get her route then 15 minutes before test was to be over did they give an idea. If you have a history with trucks and know your way around them, this is not a good resource. If you are totally ignorant and just want to pass the test and dont care about knowing anything itll get ya there. Administration did however do a great job. Just not great equipment and personally found a lack of tutelage
