The closest hands-on CDL school to Asheville. Our range in Candler is a 10 - 15 minute drive straight out Smokey Park Hwy - no commute to the Triad or Charlotte to get licensed.
If you live or work in Asheville, you're practically already here. From downtown or West Asheville, hop on I-40 West or follow Smokey Park Hwy past Enka-Candler and you'll reach our yard at 2379 Smokey Park Hwy in about 10 to 15 minutes. Coming from East or North Asheville? I-240 to I-40 puts you on the same short run.
