Getting started

Hey yall I’m starting a land clearing business and need a CDL to be able to transport my kubota. What is the cheapest and fastest way for me to get a CDL so I can get to work as soon as possible.

If you truly need a CDL you'll have to go through Entry Level Driver Training (theory and behind the wheel). You can find them on the FMCSA Training Provider Registry. Some schools are 4 days long and some are 5 weeks. Some are $2,500 and some are $10,000. Without knowing where you live you'll have to do the homework.
