According to Craters & Freighters' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees, their designated managers, and lead salespersons may be required to attend periodic courses. These courses will cover new methods, techniques, equipment, services, and procedures.
These courses are held at locations and times designated by Craters & Freighters. Franchisees are responsible for covering all travel and living expenses associated with attending these periodic courses.
