Most companys are hiring if you are over the age of 25 because of insurance reasons. Your best bet is to look into local companys. Local comapnys are more likely to bend the rules.

You won't be able to find anyone to insure you until you at least 21. If you want to get into trucking at a younger age look at working for a moving company as a lumper, you would get to travel a little and if you where working for an owner operator he would probably train you and have you driving when you turn 21.
