[QUOTE="McFeely, post: 3487770, member: 60776"] Training: 2 days for learning to drive a W700-sized truck and then courier school which is a few days. You'll have some online training too before all of that. Training on your route: you might get a couple of weeks of training on your actual route, depending on when they can get you scheduled for defensive driving. I got 3 days of training on my current route, only 2 days of training on another route I did in the past. If the size of your route is huge, you may need a map to plot out stops and it'll take some time to memorize it. If you're just doing pickups, you'll memorize your regular stops in no time. I still have all my laminated maps from all the routes I used to run just in case I get asked to run one of them. Your cellphone may not have great coverage everywhere on your route so a printed map is a good backup to have. [/QUOTE]
