Job description

Pay: $1,400 to $1,550 per week

Freight: Mostly drop-and-hook, no-touch dry van freight

Home Time: Home weekly

Location: Minneapolis, MN 55401

• Steady dry van freight demand


• Consistent weekly scheduling


• Assigned equipment with no slip seating


• Home weekly after regional runs

Dry van freight demand and consistent scheduling give CDL-A truck drivers a dependable regional setup with regular freight, weekly home time, and assigned equipment. Mostly drop-and-hook loads help limit time spent waiting at customer locations and support a more productive workweek.

Pay & Home Time: Drivers earn $1,400 to $1,550 per week through direct deposit. Regional schedules typically keep drivers out for 5-7 days before returning home each week, providing a practical balance between productive road time and consistent time at home.

Additional earnings include layover pay of $12 per hour after the first hour, $15 per stop after the first, and annual safety bonus opportunities.

Your Equipment: The fleet includes International Pro Stars, Freightliner Cascadias, and Kenworth trucks equipped with 10-speed manual transmissions. Trucks also include 1,500-watt inverters and Opti-idle systems that help maintain cab comfort during breaks without excessive engine idling.

• Assigned truck from week to week


• Take-home option with secure parking


• No routine slip seating


• Driver-focused cab equipment

The Route: Drivers haul general dry van freight through established regional lanes. The freight mix is mostly drop-and-hook and entirely no-touch, helping reduce physical workload and allowing drivers to spend more of the week focused on driving.

• Mostly drop-and-hook loads


• 100% no-touch freight


• Regional dry van operations


• Dependable weekly workload

On-the-Road Support: Drivers receive EZ Pass and toll cards for covered travel along with Comm Data fuel cards for scheduled fueling.

The rider program becomes available after 30 days and follows seasonal guidelines.
