    Select positions may operate approximately:
    3 weeks OTR
    1 week home
    Actual home time depends on the specific position, driver location, freight requirements, and carrier operating schedule.

    Valid Class A CDL
    Current DOT medical card

    WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

    We want experienced drivers who understand the responsibility that comes with open-deck freight.
    You should be comfortable evaluating loads, properly securing freight, inspecting equipment and securement, communicating with dispatch and customers, and operating professionally throughout an OTR assignment.

    Travel assistance may be available for select qualifying opportunities.
    Orientation, transportation arrangements, onboarding requirements, and other details will be confirmed before a qualified driver accepts a specific position.
