    Job Description

    CDL-A STEP DECK TRUCK DRIVER

    Specialized Freight Calls for an Experienced Driver.

    Step deck isn't ordinary OTR freight. You're working with loads that demand attention to securement, dimensions, routing, equipment, and the details that keep specialized freight moving safely.

    Truck Driver Nation is accepting applications from experienced CDL-A drivers interested in current Step Deck and specialized open-deck driving opportunities.

    THE OPPORTUNITY

    Current openings may include:

    • OTR Step Deck and specialized open-deck freight

    • Weekly pay on qualifying positions

    • Consistent freight opportunities

    • Long-haul and multi-state operations

    • Flatbed and Conestoga opportunities for qualifying drivers

    • Newer-model equipment available on select positions

    • Scheduled home-time options

    • Travel or orientation assistance on select openings

    Compensation varies by the specific available position, freight, driver experience, qualifications, and operating conditions. Complete compensation details will be provided before a driver accepts a position.

    STEP DECK EXPERIENCE MATTERS

    We're particularly interested in drivers who understand that specialized open-deck freight requires more than simply getting from pickup to delivery.

    Relevant experience may include:

    • Step Deck

    • Flatbed

    • Conestoga

    • Oversize or over-dimensional freight

    • Machinery and equipment

    • Load securement

    • Specialized open-deck freight

    Drivers with strong flatbed experience who are interested in moving into Step Deck operations may also be considered for qualifying openings.

    WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

    • Valid Class A CDL

    • Current medical card

    • Safe driving record

    • Ability to meet DOT and applicable motor-carrier requirements

    • Professional and dependable communication

    • OTR availability

    • Open-deck experience strongly preferred

    • Ability to properly understand freight securement requirements

    Many current opportunities require approximately two years of CDL-A experience. Individual MVR, PSP, SAP, accident, and other qualification standards depend on the specific available position.

    HOME TIME & OPERATING AREA

    Available OTR schedules vary by position. Current opportunities may include approximately two to three weeks on the road followed by scheduled home time.

    Operating areas and home-time requirements will be reviewed with qualified applicants before moving forward with a specific position.

    FOR DRIVERS WHO KNOW OPEN DECK

    If you've spent years learning how to secure freight, protect equipment, plan around dimensions, and handle the responsibility that comes with open-deck trucking, that experience has value.

    We want to understand what you haul, where you're willing to run, what equipment you know, your home-time requirements, and what you're looking for in your next driving position.

    APPLY

    Submit your application through this posting. Your CDL experience, Step Deck or open-deck background, driving record, location, freight experience, and home-time requirements will be reviewed for applicable current driving opportunities.
