    Job Description

    We're hiring experienced CDL-A drivers in Denham Springs, Walker and Livingston Parish for a solo OTR dry van seat. You average $1,525 a week on about 2,000 miles, with a $5,000 sign-on bonus.

    Before you switch carriers, ask any recruiter these six questions. Here are our answers.

    1. "Will I unload trailers?"
    No. Freight is 99% no-touch and about 85% drop and hook.

    2. "Is the truck mine, and how old is it?"
    It's assigned to you, 2023 or newer and automatic. You can take it home on your days off.

    3. "What will I actually make?"
    $1,525 a week on average, plus the $5,000 sign-on bonus. Your mileage rate rises with experience, loyalty pay adds 3 to 6 cents a mile after a year, and a monthly bonus adds up to 3 cents for safety and miles. You also get a per diem program and weekly pay.

    4. "Do you pay for my time when things go wrong?"
    Yes. Detention is $12.50 an hour after 2 hours. Layover or breakdown is $100 a day, and short hauls carry a $100–$200 minimum.

    5. "When am I home?"
    After 10 to 14 days out, you get 2 days home. You run all 48 states, mostly east of I-35, and NYC is never forced.

    6. "What about benefits?"
    After 30 days you get medical, dental and vision, plus a 401(k) with a match up to 5%. You also get yearly raises and paid vacation after a year. A rider and one pet up to 80 lbs are allowed.

    • 21+, Class A CDL
    • At least 3 months tractor-trailer experience in the last 36 months
    • No more than 2 moving violations in 2 years
