About
For over 20 years, AKA Hauling has been a cornerstone of Alaska’s trucking industry. In 2018, recognizing a shortage of rural commercial drivers, AKA Hauling collaborated with the DOT Civil Rights Office, DMV, UAA, AML, and Yakutat Tribal Council to initiate a pilot CDL training program in Yakutat. This initiative not only mitigated individual travel expenses but also enabled participants to fulfill work and family commitments concurrently.
​
Building on the success of the Yakutat program, AKA Hauling forged a partnership with the University of Alaska Anchorage to address similar needs in Anchorage. Starting in January 2024, AKA Hauling has evolved into AKA Hauling Commercial Driving School, now operating independently. This transformation extends our program to the broader public in rural Alaska and the Anchorage area, while steadfastly pursuing our mission of delivering exceptional, student-centered CDL training.
