Clover Farms is a dairy and beverage producer and distributer. We produce quality milks, dairy products, fruit juices, fruit drinks, bottled spring water, and a full line of Icy Teas.

What It Takes to Drive Professionally
Professionals who want to earn a good living and enjoy driving often choose truck driving as a career. A Class A CDL is often required for long haul truckers, and it generally provides the potential to make more money. Drivers with this license can operate more vehicles than those with other licenses.
With a Class A Commercial Driver’s License, drivers can operate machines with a weight of 26,001 lbs. or greater. Drivers can acquire special endorsements as well, i.e., hazardous goods, tanker, double trailers, etc.
A Class B CDL lets professional drivers operate a limited number of vehicles, typically box trucks for local deliveries. This license is often sought out when drivers know where they want to work or don’t want to go over the road in the future.
With a Class B CDL, drivers can operate vehicles that weigh 26,001 pounds as long as they don’t pull a trailer. This license allows lighter vehicles to tow trailers weighing less than 10,000 pounds, and it provides the driver with the possibility to acquire endorsements.
Clover Farms has positions for both types of CDL licenses, but all drivers will need to meet our expectations regarding performance, safety, and customer service. We use handheld electronic devices, so drivers will either need to know how to operate them or have the capacity to learn. When interacting with customers, our drivers should remember that they reflect upon Clover Farms and behave as such. We require that our team of drivers complies with all rules we set for our drivers.
