“At TAG Logistics Corporation you are going to learn above and beyond what other companies may offer for the MELT program. You are not just a number with a cheque book. You are a future driver and TAG ensures you obtain all the knowledge and skills to keep you and the open road safe. I walked into the TAG office ready to be a trucker and come out a professional driver”

“This was a great choice for a driving school. The instructors were not just doing the job so that you could pass. They went above and beyond to make sure that you as the student had a very high starting baseline for a career. David and Will had a vast pool of knowledge and knew how to engage me as the student in the way I needed to be engaged to best learn the skills. The facilities and equipment were all very well kept and in great condition.”
