Job description

Barstow sits on I-15 and I-40, and trucks roll through it every hour. With American Driver, the next one could be yours. Class A drivers in Barstow, Hesperia, Apple Valley and Yermo can start a western dry van job with paid training, short runs and home time every two weeks.

Five reasons this seat makes sense

1. You are paid from the first day. Orientation pays $300 on your first paycheck. Mentor training pays $850 a week for 3 to 5 weeks, about 200 to 250 hours behind the wheel.

2. Your first months are protected. After your first solo dispatch, you are guaranteed $1,000 a week for 3 months.

3. The runs are short. Most loads take 2 days or less. Freight stays in 11 western states: California, Nevada, Arizona, Utah, Colorado, New Mexico, Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Montana and Wyoming.

4. You get home. Every two weeks.

5. The extras add up. $15 stop pay, a performance bonus of up to $0.06 per mile, $20 for an unload assist and $80 for a full hand unload when a load needs it.

After training

The average is $1,000 to $1,300 a week on 1,700 to 2,100 miles. Freight is dry van with live loads, live unloads, preloads and drop and hook. Shifts run day and night and include some weekends and holidays. Expect winter driving in the high country.

Experienced drivers

First seat and 1-year experienced drivers are welcome. Your pay is set by your verifiable experience. Teams are accepted.

Pets

Once you are solo, a dog can come along.

Benefits

Medical, dental and vision coverage, a 401(k) and paid time off.
