CDL-A OTR Reefer Driver

We're hiring recent CDL-A grads in Orangeburg, Bowman and Orangeburg County for an OTR reefer seat. You earn $650 a week in training, then $1,300 to $1,500 a week solo, and you're home every two weeks.

Wondering what the job feels like? Here's a regular day once you're solo.

You wake up in your sleeper. It's your assigned truck, about 1.5 years old on average, automatic or 10-speed. You do your pre-trip, check the reefer unit and roll.

The trailer is loaded and cold. You drive it across the East or Midwest, sometimes by day and sometimes overnight. At the receiver, you back in, hand over paperwork and wait. You don't unload. That's the dock's job.

Short hauls pay $100 flat. By the end of the week you've logged at least 1,900 miles, often up to 2,800. Drivers average $1,300 to $1,500 a week, plus a monthly performance bonus. Every two weeks, you head home.

How you get there

After an orientation of two days at most, with the hotel covered, bus fare reimbursed and $300 earned once hired, you ride with a mentor for 3 to 5 weeks (200–250 hours) at $650 a week. Your first three months solo come with a $1,000 weekly guarantee.

Benefits after 30 days

Medical, dental, vision and prescriptions. 401(k), stock purchase, employee assistance. A free online degree for you and one family member. Riders allowed, and one dog under 40 lbs after training. Weekend and holiday work is part of the schedule.

What you need

• Age 21+, Class A CDL
• New CDL grad, or 6 months of recent experience
• No more than 2 moving violations in 2 years
• No DUI/DWI in 10 years
• DOT physical and hair/urine drug test

If that day sounds good, apply. A recruiter will call.

EOE.
