About this data

3rated
4.6average score
2ndby size in this category

Reno, Nevada has 3 schools across 2 ZIP codes, which is 12% of everything listed for Nevada.

These 3 entries come from a register that publishes no registration dates at all. They were on the register when it was last refreshed, on September 22, 2026.

All 3 hold the same class of registration: FMCSA-registered ELDT training provider.

3 of the 3 (100%) hold more than one class of registration. Across this page the classes held include Class A (3), Hazardous Materials (2), Class B (1).

By what they actually deliver: 2 offer behind-the-wheel training on a range, 2 offer classroom or online theory instruction and 1 offer behind-the-wheel training on public roads. 1 of the 3 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 offers theory only, so a trainee using it needs a second provider for the driving half.

2 of 3 publish a phone number and 3 have a website.

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.

3 of the 3 have a Google rating, averaging 4.6 across 153 reviews.

Reno, Nevada ranks 2nd of the 12 cities covered in this category, holding 12% of the listings, ahead of 10 others.

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.

What the rules require

Reno: questions

Where can I find schools in Reno, NV?
3 schools in Reno are on the official list: Desert Knight CDL School at 1350 N Wells Ave; 160 Driving Academy - Reno - Classroom at 465 South Meadows Parkway, Suite 12; Nevada Desert Truck Driving School at 2950 Sutro St. 2 of them publish a phone number.
What is the nearest option outside Reno?
Desert Knight CDL School in Sparks, about 6.7 miles away in a straight line. Open the listing for directions.
How many schools are there in Washoe county?
4 in Washoe county and 26 across Nevada.
Are these schools currently licensed?
The state register these records come from publishes no registration dates. Each of these 3 facilities appeared in the register when it was last refreshed, on September 22, 2026. 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 source register is a registration, not a business. 3 of the 3 entries on this page hold more than one class of registration at the same address. They are merged into a single entry here, keyed on the place rather than on the registration, so one business is one listing and every class it holds is shown in its record detail.
Which of these can do the behind-the-wheel training?
1 of the 3 are registered for both the range and the public-road portions. 1 offer theory only. 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 range training 2, theory instruction 2, behind-the-wheel public-road training 1.
How many are rated?
3 of 3 have a Google rating, averaging 4.6 across 153 reviews.
