About this data

Where the list comes from and what it does and does not say
1in the directory
1in the state register
19thby size in this category

Des Moines, Iowa has 1 school, which is 2% of everything listed for Iowa.

All of them sit in Polk County.

These 1 entries come from a register that publishes no registration dates at all. For those, the only thing that can honestly be said is that the facility appeared in the state register when it was last refreshed, on September 22, 2026. No issue, renewal or expiry date is shown for them, and none is guessed.

All 1 hold the same class of registration: FMCSA-registered ELDT training provider, in the source's own wording.

1 of the 1 (100%) hold more than one class of registration. Each is one entry here, with every class it holds shown in its record detail. Across this page the classes held include Class A (1), Class B (1), Passenger (1), School Bus (1).

By what they actually deliver: 1 offer behind-the-wheel training on public roads and 1 offer behind-the-wheel training on a range. 1 of the 1 can deliver both the range and the public-road portions, which matters because 49 CFR 380.707(c) allows the theory and behind-the-wheel portions to come from different providers but requires both behind-the-wheel portions to come from the same one.

1 has a website. Phone numbers are normalized to one format here; the registers publish them several different ways.

The Training Provider Registry publishes a phone number and a website for some providers and not for others, so the coverage below varies by place.

The map positions come from the register itself rather than from an address lookup. No distance claim is made anywhere in this text; the "nearest to me" list computes straight-line distances in your own browser from your own location.

Des Moines, Iowa ranks 19th of the 44 cities covered in this category, holding 2% of the listings, ahead of 25 others.

For a wider choice, the largest cities in this category are Cedar Rapids (5), Davenport (4), Waterloo (3), Atlantic (2). They are ordered by how many entries each holds, not by how close they are.

Every record on this page comes from Training Provider Registry, published by Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration on tpr.fmcsa.dot.gov as dataset training-provider-registry. Each card carries the date the record was last re-checked.

What the rules require

Des Moines: questions

Where can I find schools in Des Moines, IA?
1 school in Des Moines is on the official list: DMACC Transportation Institute at 2081 NE 54th Ave. 1 of them publish a phone number.
What is the nearest option outside Des Moines?
1-Day CDL, LLC in Altoona, about 6.2 miles away in a straight line. Open the listing for directions.
How many schools are there in Polk county?
5 in Polk county and 58 across Iowa.
Is this school currently licensed?
The state register these records come from publishes no registration dates, so the honest answer is narrower than it looks: each of these 1 facilities appeared in the register when it was last refreshed, on September 22, 2026. No expiry date is shown because none is published, and none is guessed. Confirm the current position with the facility or the issuing authority before relying on it.
Why does one address hold several licenses?
Because a row in the state register is a license, not a business. 1 of the 1 entries on this page hold more than one class at the same address, typically an inspection license alongside a repair or dealer license. They are merged into a single entry here, keyed on the facility rather than on the license, so one shop is one listing and its other classes appear on its own page.
Which of these can do the behind-the-wheel training?
1 of the 1 are registered for both the range and the public-road portions. The distinction matters: 49 CFR 380.707(c) permits the theory and behind-the-wheel portions to be delivered by separate providers, but requires both behind-the-wheel portions, range and public road, to come from the same provider. Breakdown here: behind-the-wheel public-road training 1, behind-the-wheel range training 1.
Why do the cards not show star ratings?
No public rating has been matched to any of these 1 records, so no stars are shown. The registration record is the stronger signal in any case: where the register publishes them, the issue date, last renewal, expiry and the Training Provider Registry listing all come from the issuing authority, which is not true of a star average.
