Getting Your CDL in Order to Work for Trucking Companies in Ohio
Whether you’re looking for CDL jobs in Columbus, truck driving jobs in Cleveland, trucking jobs in Cincinnati, or local CDL jobs in Toledo, Ohio, you will first need to obtain your Commercial Drivers License (CDL). In Ohio, you will need to be 18 years of age to drive a commercial vehicle in state and 21 years of age to drive a commercial vehicle outside of the state. Additionally, If you plan to transport hazardous materials or passengers while driving a commercial vehicle, you must be 21 years old.
The first step to getting your CDL and working for the trucking companies in Ohio is applying for your Ohio Commercial Learners Permit (CLP). To do this, you will need to complete several steps, which include having a current Medical Examiner’s Certificate and a valid Medical Examination Report. You will be required to successfully pass a CDL written test and pay the required fees.
After you receive your CLP, you can then schedule your CDL road test. You will need to bring your own insured commercial vehicle for the test. As a part of the test, a pre-trip inspection will be performed. If your vehicle does not pass this safety inspection, you will not be allowed to continue with the exam. You will then be tested on your ability to understand and obey traffic laws and how well you maneuver your vehicle during the basic controls and road test.
What do the trucking companies in Ohio require of their drivers?
In order to be employed by the trucking companies in Ohio, you must meet some basic hiring requirements.

Ohio Taxes and Cost of Living
In addition to finding out what kind of salary and benefits you may receive by working for one of the trucking companies in Ohio, it is imperative that you also consider living expenses and taxes. These two expenses can vary based on where you live. Making a higher salary at one of the trucking jobs in Ohio won’t do you much good if you pay more money for state or local taxes or for higher living expenses.
A single adult with no kids in Ohio will see an annual average living expense of $20,542 before any taxes are applied. For a household of two adults and two kids in Ohio, the average living expenses are $61,067. While living expenses are relatively low when compared to many other states, Ohio has the 6th highest state and local tax in the nation with an average tax rate of 13.06%
The national average price for a gallon of diesel fuel as of May 2017 is $2.371, while in Ohio the price is several cents lower at $2.293. However, the price of diesel fuel will fluctuate, just as regular and unleaded fuel prices do. If you are an owner-operator who does business with trucking companies in Ohio, you will need to pay attention to the ever-changing cost of diesel fuel and how it will impact your bottom line.
Driving Conditions for Truck Drivers in Ohio
Although truck driving jobs in Ohio offer many benefits such as not having a boss peering over your shoulder all day or being cooped up in an office, they also have some challenges. One of these challenges is traffic and weather conditions.
Major cities like Cincinnati and Cleveland can cause truck drivers to run behind schedule and become frustrated, due to the heavy traffic often found in these heavily populated areas. This stop-and-go traffic can also cause additional wear and tear on a semi-truck.
Even if you do not drive a truck in one of the more populated areas of the state, you will at some point encounter snowy conditions. This is especially true in northern Ohio where some areas can see as much as 50-inches of snow per year. As a driver for Ohio trucking companies, you will need to practice and be prepared for winter driving conditions.
Expected Growth for Truck Driving Jobs in Ohio
The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts a slightly lower than average rate of growth for truck driving jobs in Ohio when compared with the same job in other states. Ohio is expected to experience only a 5% growth with an additional 1,600 truck driving jobs between 2014 and 2024. A 6% growth is predicted for truck driving jobs across the nation with an additional 40,450 job openings for American truck drivers.
