Is There CDL Training in Pflugerville Itself?
Yes. Changing Lanes CDL School is on Pflugerville Parkway in the 78660 ZIP code (its price page shows the address two slightly different ways). It lists a Class A course that ends in a certificate for 180 hours, and it is one of the few Austin-area schools that publishes a start calendar: weekday and weeknight classes begin on the 1st, 3rd and 5th Monday of each month, and the weekend class begins on the 1st Saturday. It does not state the course length in weeks, so ask how the 180 hours are spread across each schedule.
Two details are worth knowing before you enrol. Training is automatic, and removing the automatic-transmission restriction from your license is priced separately — $500 for current students and $750 for non-students. And the school publishes no Class B course, so if a straight-truck license is your goal you will be looking at Round Rock, where Austin CDL Services and Community Truck Driving School both list Class B.
The other nearby option is Austin Community College’s four-week Class A course at its Northridge Campus, roughly six to seven miles south-west in North Austin, at $4,950 plus additional fees.

We have verified three things about it: hands-on CDL training, one-on-one (1:1) instruction, and continued hands-on training through licensing, subject to school program terms. Its tuition, schedule and funding options are for the school to confirm when it contacts you. We do not publish its name or contact details — use the form on this page.
Before paying any school, look it up by name on the FMCSA Training Provider Registry. We did not run that check for this page, and a listing means the provider registered and self-certified — treat it as the minimum. Compare all Austin-area programs →
Training Around a Job in Pflugerville
Many people who train in Pflugerville are already working — often in the warehouses along SH 130. That makes the local school’s published calendar genuinely useful: a weeknight cohort starting on the 1st, 3rd or 5th Monday, or a weekend cohort starting on the 1st Saturday, lets you plan a start date without quitting first. Evening and weekend formats take longer on the calendar than full-time weekday training, so ask how many weeks your cohort runs.
The state clock runs in parallel. Hold your commercial learner permit at least 14 days before the skills test, finish entry-level driver training with a registered provider, and get your DOT medical examination done early — see the Texas CDL medical card. If you are working full time, our guide to CDL training while working full time covers the trade-offs.
CDL Training Cost in Pflugerville
Changing Lanes lists $4,300 for Class A. On its own page that price includes automatic training, third-party testing, the permit and all study materials including the instructor, and the Hazmat, Tanker, Doubles and Triples endorsements. That is a more complete package than some cheaper-looking prices nearby, so compare what is included rather than the headline.
For reference: in Round Rock, Austin CDL Services lists $2,900–$3,300 for Class A one-on-one driving hours and Community Truck lists $3,500; Austin Community College lists $4,950 plus additional fees. Add the $500 or $750 manual-restriction removal if you want to drive manual trucks after an automatic course.
State fees are fixed: $25 for the original commercial learner permit and $97 for a standard new CDL for ages 18–84 without a Hazmat endorsement (DPS fee schedule). Austin-area costs, line by line →

Where Pflugerville CDL Holders Commonly Work
Pflugerville had 65,191 residents at the 2020 census and has built a distribution economy along SH 130. See all Texas CDL jobs →
Warehouse and Fulfillment Freight
Amazon announced its 820,000-square-foot Pflugerville fulfillment centre in 2020 with 1,000 full-time jobs, and the 130 Commerce Center hosts FedEx and other businesses. Trucks move in and out of both every day.

Construction and Local Delivery
Residential growth across the north-east side keeps dump trucks and straight trucks busy. Much of that is Class B work, which means training in Round Rock rather than in Pflugerville itself.
