how much propane can you haul without hazmat endorsement
Yes. You need a CDL and a hazmat endorsement both. You're well above the allotted amount which can be transported without the tanker and hazmat endorsements.
They require a tanker endorsement, and most commodities they haul also require the driver to have a hazmat endorsement.
You would need the N (tanker) and H (hazmat) endorsements. Most states issue an X endorsement as a combination of N and H.
Yes, and you would need hazmat and tanker endorsements, as well.
No, it is not legal to haul any quantity of hazardous material without a hazmat endorsement on your CDL license. You need the endorsement to legally transport hazardous materials as it requires additional training and certification to ensure the safety of yourself and others on the road.
No, you don't.
That depends. If you don't have ICC and USDOT operating authority, you can't legally haul freight for hire. You may want to look at leasing on with an expediter company such as Panther II, FedEx Custom Critical, Tri-State, etc. Then, what you can haul will depend on what class of license you have. Even if the GVW is under 26,000 lbs, you'll still need a Class C (minimum) CDL with hazmat endorsement to haul hazmat loads, for example.
You can obtain a CDL at the age of 18. However, you would be restricted to operating a commercial vehicle only within the boundaries of your home state (the state of issue), and you could not obtain an endorsement to haul hazardous materials. You must be 21 to do interstate transport in a CMV, and to obtain your hazmat endorsement
Yes you do
From what I've found, its about 60 - 65 gallons per hour.
Anywhere from 50 to 300, depending on how the buyer had it spec'd out. 240 gallons is pretty common for a line haul OTR truck.
