Plan your visit
Looking at Houston freight or container work? Match your CDL plan to the tractor and trailer you expect to drive.

Before you choose a container-hauling job
Port Houston operates container terminals, but the equipment, access credentials and hiring requirements come from the specific operator. Ask the carrier what transmission and endorsements it requires. Use that information to choose your test vehicle and discuss prior tractor-trailer experience.
Questions before you book.
Does a CDL test reservation also arrange port access?
Contact the employer or terminal about its entry credentials. For the CDL reservation, bring the vehicle class, transmission and test appointment details.
Where are in-person services available?
Get Your CDL Quick schedules in-person vehicle services in Royse City. If you have a DPS appointment near Houston, confirm the rental location and availability with the office before you travel.
What should I ask for in my quote?
Ask for each selected service, the test-vehicle rental, applicable fuel and other charges, retest terms and the written price total. Confirm which services qualify for complimentary ELDT behind-the-wheel and what proficiency you must demonstrate.
