Regional Freight With Less Time Handling Loads

LEM Trucking is hiring a Class A CDL Truck Driver in Newark, New Jersey, for a regional position featuring frequent drop-and-hook freight, consistent customer assignments, and scheduled weekly home time.

Drivers average $1,150 to $1,600 per week while operating established routes throughout the Midwest and Southeast. Approximately 95 percent of freight is no-touch, allowing drivers to focus on completing deliveries instead of routinely handling cargo.

Freight Operations and Home Schedule

The fleet handles a high percentage of drop-and-hook assignments, helping reduce time spent waiting through live loading and unloading appointments.

A Class A CDL Truck Driver returns home every week for approximately 34 hours, with most resets scheduled over the weekend.

Routes are planned to avoid New York City and the surrounding boroughs, providing regional driving opportunities without NYC deliveries.

Compensation and Driver Benefits

  • Average weekly earnings between $1,150 and $1,600

  • Home every week for approximately a 34-hour reset

  • Approximately 95 percent no-touch dry van freight

  • Frequent drop-and-hook assignments

Additional benefits include company-paid life insurance, available holiday pay, and rider program opportunities for qualifying drivers.

Late-Model Equipment

Each Class A CDL Truck Driver operates an assigned International, Freightliner, or Kenworth tractor equipped with an Opti-Idle climate system and a 1,500-watt power inverter.

Equipment receives routine maintenance to support dependable operation throughout the regional workweek.

Paid orientation includes approved travel expenses, hotel accommodations, and meals for qualifying drivers.

Class A CDL Truck Driver Requirements

Applicants must possess a valid Class A CDL and have recent verifiable tractor-trailer driving experience.

Candidates must maintain an acceptable driving record and meet applicable DOT and company safety qualification requirements.

This position offers a defined regional freight network, limited physical freight handling, and regular opportunities to return home.
