{"replyTo":"","text":"I got the doubles/triples and hazmat endorsements when I got my CDL back in '93, figuring versatility.   I never pulled doubles until I started pulling double tanks in the North Dakota oilfield 20 years later hauling water.  By then, I had dropped hazmat since I spent ten years on a civilian contractor transportation contract at Ft. Campbell and the company didn't pay extra for hazmat holders or cover the background checks.   We didn't require it on post, so it simply didn't make sense.  I obtained the tank endorsement a couple of years prior to moving to North Dakota while hauling bulk def and oil at a regional job out of Nashville.   If the position you're looking at is worthwhile, get the endorsement(s) and add the experience,  if nothing else.  It just gives you more versatile options in the future, in my opinion.   The tests aren't that bad and any place that hires you for something requiring an endorsement is going to add their training anyway.  One should never stop learning,  no matter how many years out here.  Go for it and good luck.  Be safe...","replyToPid":0}

{"replyTo":"","text":"Yes, absolutely! You will have more options having hazmat I personally haul 98% hazmat. It takes on a bit more responsibility but it’s no big deal the more load to haul the more exposure you have to hauling hazmat I never want to haul hazmat because I rarely ever hold it now seems like every load I get is hazmat but that also depends on the company you’re hired on with some companies don’t haul hazardous material but more than likely if you’re a new driver you’ll be hired on with a larger outfit that rarely halls it anyway.
