CDL-A Tanker Driver: Tanker Endorsement Paid, $78K Avg - Dodge City, KS

Milk Tanker Driver | Dodge City Area | About $1,500 a Week | Tanker Endorsement Covered

Five days on, two off, and you're home most nights. The freight is milk, running between Scott City and Hugoton, and the endorsement that lets you haul it doesn't come out of your pocket.

That's the unusual part. Most outfits want the tanker endorsement before they'll talk to you. This one pays for it, and they'll help you get your Kansas milk license too. So if you've been curious about food-grade tank work but never wanted to front the cost, the door is open.
