Bit of a grey area here. While some state laws specifically permit company employees without a CDL to operate CMVs on the company property, the FMCSR states in no uncertain terms that someone who does not possess at least the corresponding class of learner's permit may not be in actual physical control of that vehicle. You wouldn't get ticketed on private property, but if some incident occurred which resulted in an insurance claim, the insurance company might try to deny the claim on the grounds that the operator was not qualified.

No commercial licence needed long as it stays in the yard. If it's in the yard it's on private property just don't take it out the gate. However I have worked for one trucking company that required a class A due to company policies and safety reasons.

It depends on where you are selling the clothing as to whether or not you require a license. If you are selling at a simple yard sale, you do not require any special license or documentation. However if you are selling clothing at any type of vendor event or in an actual storefront setting you are required to obtain either a vendor license or an actual small business license including a federal tax id #.

How many miles is hodgkin in from Chicago il?

There is no Hodgkin IN. There is a Hodgkins IL. When you trace a UPS package, it will sometimes tell you that the package is in Hodgkins IN. That is a fictional town. It is actually a truck yard just off of exit 1 on the Indiana toll road. Indiana allows trucks with three trailers on its highways, Illinois allows trucks with two trailers. This truck yard is where they switch trailers between trucks to comply with the regulations. The reason they call it "Hodgkins" is that is under the same management as the UPS facility in Hodgkins IL.
