    Description

    Most regional positions promise consistency and deliver chaos. This one is built differently — fixed territory, assigned equipment, and a dispatch team that measures success by whether you're home when you're supposed to be.

    Compensation Breakdown:

    • Base mileage: $0.56 CPM climbing to $0.64 CPM as tenure grows
    • Realistic weekly gross: $1,300 to $1,500 for drivers running their available hours
    • Mileage volume: 2,000 to 2,400 miles weekly across a stable freight network
    • Performance incentives: additional cash for drivers maintaining clean safety records
    • Payroll: automated direct deposit, same day every week
    • New driver onboarding: fully compensated from first day of class

    Equipment & Operations:

    • Assigned unit from day one — Freightliner Cascadia or Kenworth T680
    • No shared trucks, no pool rotations
    • Dry van freight only — no hazmat, no flatbed, no specialized handling
    • Customer freight is pre-staged — drivers never touch the cargo
    • Freight mix leans heavily toward drop & hook with select live stop appointments

    Schedule Structure:

    • Territory confined to regional lanes — no cross-country dispatching
    • Weekly mileage target of 2,000 to 2,400 is consistently achievable
    • 34-hour home reset built into every weekly cycle
    • Drivers with earning goals can opt into extended road time voluntarily
    • Dispatch operates on planned windows — your ETA home is a commitment, not a guess

    Training Pathway:

    • Position is accessible to CDL-A holders regardless of experience level
    • Structured 3 to 5 week mentorship program pairs you with a senior road driver
    • Training syllabus includes log compliance, pre-trip inspection standards, and customer protocol
    • Independent dispatch begins immediately after trainer certification
    • Full pay applies throughout the entire training period — no reduced training wage

    Employee Benefits:

    • Comprehensive health plan covering medical, dental, and vision expenses
    • Employer-matched retirement contributions through 401(k) enrollment
    • Paid time off accrual beginning after introductory period
    • Company-funded life insurance and accidental death benefit policy
    • Approved riders and pets permitted under fleet guidelines

    Minimum Qualifications:

    • Active Class A Commercial Driver License
    • Tractor-trailer operating history of 6 months minimum, or CDL-A graduate status
    • Successful completion of DOT physical examination and substance screening
    • Motor vehicle record reflecting no more than 2 violations within 36 months
    • No impaired driving convictions within the preceding 3 years
    • Criminal history clear of felony charges within the last 5 years

    Orientation cohorts are forming now — delayed applications risk losing your spot.
