Job Description

Most first jobs keep a new driver out for weeks. With American Driver, Class A drivers in Springfield, Chatham, Rochester and Sherman can run a Midwest regional fleet that brings them home for a 34-hour reset. Loads usually keep you a day or less from home, and training is paid.

What a week looks like

Your schedule rotates. It can be Sunday to Thursday or Tuesday to Saturday, with day and night driving. You run 1,700 to 2,400 miles across the central U.S.: Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin, Iowa, Missouri and Kentucky. Some loads go west to Kansas, east into Pennsylvania, north to Minnesota, and once in a while south to Georgia. Then you go home for your 34-hour reset. Weekend work is voluntary.

The pay

  • Paid orientation: $300 on your first paycheck
  • Paid training: $665 a week
  • $1,000 a week guaranteed for your first 3 months solo
  • $0.56–$0.65 per mile based on verifiable experience
  • Average weekly pay: $1,100–$1,700
  • $15 for each stop except the first and last

Training

You learn for 3 to 5 weeks with an experienced mentor, about 200 to 250 hours on the road, and you are paid every week.

The freight
