In Oklahoma City, I-35 (Texas to Minnesota), I-40 (California to North Carolina), and I-44 (Texas to Missouri) meet to form “America’s Crossroads,” one of the nation’s most important highway junctions. This junction has helped make Oklahoma a central logistics hub. The state’s logistics and intermodal (rail-to-truck) sectors make great use of double-trailer and triple-trailer trucks. (Triple trailers are legal on the state’s turnpikes.) Triple-trailer trucks are used by parcel and Less-Than-Truckload (LTL) carriers.
Oklahoma is also a major regional distribution center for retail chains, such as Walmart. These companies operate doubles to transport products to multiple stores efficiently. The oil and gas industry uses doubles to transport crude oil, drilling equipment, and fuel. The agriculture industry uses double trailers to haul feed, fertilizer, grain, and livestock. Finally, the manufacturing industry uses doubles to transport raw materials, components, and finished goods.
Would you like to pull doubles or triples in one of these economic sectors? You must hold a Class A CDL, be qualified to operate air brakes, and obtain a Double/Triple (T) endorsement on your Class A CDL.
