CDL-A Entry Level Driver

Passaic and Bergen County drivers: dedicated store routes for one retail customer, top regional pay, and you are home every week.

Your CDL is fresh and you need someone to give you a start? This account trains new drivers.

Questions drivers ask us first

• “What does it really pay?” $1,700 to $2,000 a week on average, at $0.85 to $0.90 per mile.
• “Am I home?” Every week, and through the house as often as the routes allow.
• “Do I have to drive in the city?” Yes. Runs cover New York City, New Jersey and Connecticut, and you get $75 extra for each delivery inside the five boroughs.
• “I have never driven in traffic like that.” You learn the routes with a mentor before you ever go solo.

The schedule

All round trips. Day and night shifts are available. This account works weekends and holidays, so plan on that.

Your path to solo

A recruiter calls you and checks your license and record before anything else. Orientation takes no more than 2 days, the hotel is covered, your bus ticket is reimbursed, and you get $300 once you are hired. Then 4 to 6 weeks with a mentor. Then your own assigned truck, about 1.5 years old on average.
