    Job Description

    We're hiring entry-level CDL-A drivers in Lyons, Vidalia and Toombs County for an OTR reefer seat. Training pays $850 a week, solo pay averages $1,300 to $1,500 a week, and you're home every two weeks.

    Taking a truck job is a family decision. Here are the answers to what the people at home will ask.

    "Will the bills get paid while you're training?"
    Yes. Training pays $850 a week for 3 to 5 weeks (200–250 hours), every week.

    "What if the first solo weeks are slow?"
    The first three months solo carry a $1,000 weekly guarantee.

    "What will you make after that?"
    On average $1,300 to $1,500 a week on 1,900 to 2,800 miles. Short hauls add $100 flat, and there's a monthly performance bonus.

    "When will we see you?"
    Every two weeks.

    "Is it hard on your body?"
    It's reefer freight, and you don't unload.

    "Can I ride along? Can the dog?"
    Riders are allowed. A dog under 40 lbs is allowed once training is finished.

    "What about insurance?"
    After 30 days you get medical, dental, vision and prescriptions, plus a 401(k), stock purchase plan and employee assistance. You and one family member also get a free online degree.

    The rest of the details

    Orientation is two days or less, with the hotel covered, bus fare reimbursed and $300 once hired. Your truck is assigned and about 1.5 years old on average. Runs cover the East and Midwest, day and night, with weekend and holiday work.
