About the job CDL-A Driver - All Experience Levels Welcome

Driving for a living means different things to different people. For some it's the freedom. For others it's the paycheck. This position delivers both — structured enough to build a life around, open enough to let you run your miles your way.

  • Mileage compensation starts at $0.56 and tops out at $0.64 CPM
  • Drivers averaging their available hours gross $1,300 to $1,500 weekly
  • Weekly mileage falls between 2,000 and 2,400 depending on freight flow

  • Orientation days are paid — you start earning before you ever touch a truck

Your Week:

  • Regional lanes keep you within a predictable geographic corridor
  • 2,000 to 2,400 miles available every week — freight network is stable year-round
  • Home for your 34-hour restart on a weekly cycle
  • Drivers chasing bigger paychecks can voluntarily stay out longerDispatch builds your load plan around your hours — not the other way around

New To The Industry:
