Discover your future in Driver Orientation!
Your safety and that of the motoring public are one of our top priorities. That’s why you’ll get unmatched training during your paid orientation when you join our ranks. You’ll also get to experience first-hand what makes TW Transport more than a job – but a family. And if you’re new to driving, our industry-leading reefer truck driver training will get you ready to hit the road.
We will fly you to our office in Spokane, Washington, and we’ll pay for your room, breakfast and lunch while you’re here – dinner is your time to explore what Spokane has to offer. Arrive Monday, get your truck Thursday.
