Why Drive for AGM Transport?

At AGM Transport, drivers aren’t just filling seats — they’re the reason freight moves. We’ve built our operation around steady, contracted freight and the kind of on‑site support most carriers can’t match, so drivers can focus on driving, not chasing answers.

If you’re looking for strong pay, modern equipment, and a company that backs you up at every mile, AGM Transport is worth a serious look.

CDL‑A Regional Truck Driver Overview

• Pay built to add up. Average $1,800 per week, with base pay of 72-77CPM with all miles paid — loaded and empty. Plus, earn performance, safety, and service bonuses worth up to 3CPM on all miles.*
• A floor you can plan around. Regional drivers qualify for a $1,500 weekly minimum pay guarantee* when available for dispatch, accepting reasonable loads, and meeting service expectations — so your baseline is never a guessing game.
• More ways to earn. A per diem program is available,* plus additional pay for detention, layover, extra stops, and clean DOT inspections* — so your check reflects the full value of your week.
• Home every week. Run Midwest regional lanes through WI, MI, OH, IN, IL, and MN and get home every week — real home time you can actually plan around.
• Freight that keeps you rolling. Run 100% no-touch, dry‑van freight with a majority of drop & hook loads on contracted customer accounts — consistent miles on familiar Midwest regional runs.
• Assigned trucks built for the road. Drive your own 2022–2026 Freightliner Cascadia equipped with APUs, inverters, a microwave, and refrigerator, backed by an on‑site shop and 24/7 road service so you’re never left waiting.
• Coverage that backs you up. Medical, dental, and vision insurance, complimentary life insurance, and a 401(k) with a 4% match after 12 months.
• Paid to get started. Paid orientation with travel reimbursement so your first week works for you before you ever turn a wheel.
• Life on the road, made easier. On‑site driver amenities including showers, a driver lounge, and laundry facilities, plus a rider policy and pet insurance so you can bring who matters most.
• Get rewarded for bringing your network. Earn a $2,000 referral bonus for every driver you bring on board.
• Support that’s always on. 24/7 dispatch and operations support keeps you moving, with an on‑site maintenance facility and fuel station ready when you need them.

*All pay and bonus amounts may vary by job type, location, experience level, and performance and are subject to change based on company discretion. Talk with a recruiter to confirm specific details.

There is no deadline to apply. Applications are accepted on an ongoingbasis.*
