Located in West St. Paul, Interstate Truck Driving School is the oldest and largest private truck driving school in Minnesota. For over 26 years, we’ve helped thousands of students earn their CDL and start strong careers in trucking.

We offer Class A and Class B training programs, built to meet FMCSA regulations and prepare you for the CDL Road Test with hands-on instruction and one-on-one coaching.

✅ We guarantee your road test appointment when you enroll. No other private school in Minnesota offers this.
✅ Interstate is the only private CDL school in Minnesota approved for VA education benefits.

Whether you're just getting started or changing careers, we provide the tools and support to help you succeed.

Why Now Is the Right Time to Train

There has never been a better time to become a professional driver. The country is facing a nationwide driver shortage, which means real opportunity for people ready to work.

Many CDL holders earn $60,000 to $90,000 per year, with some positions paying over $100,000 annually as experience builds. If you’ve got a clean driving record and a strong work ethic, trucking can offer a stable and rewarding path forward.
