Renewing its commitment to being the industry’s premier training program, Millis Transfer unveiled a new trainee pay package on August 31. Instead of standard trainee pay over the course of the program, pay now increases with the amount of time spent in training.

In addition to great pay, the Millis training program offers reasonable prices. Prospective drivers don’t have to save money in order to go to school because the Millis plan is affordable. The total cost of the program is $2,500. Students pay $500 up front. With a commitment to work for Millis for one year, Millis will pay the remaining $2,000.
