Job description

CDL A Truck Driver

Hartford, CT 06101

Weekly Pay: $1,500 to $1,800
Home Time: Every Weekend
Freight: Dedicated Dry Van
Equipment: 2021 or Newer Peterbilt 579

Experienced drivers looking for weekend home time can earn $1,500 to $1,800 per week while operating dedicated dry van freight in newer Peterbilt equipment. LEM Trucking is hiring a CDL A Truck Driver in Hartford for a position offering a minimum 34 hour reset at home each weekend, along with additional schedule flexibility when available.

This opportunity is with a smaller carrier environment where drivers can expect more direct support and a team that values experienced Class A CDL Drivers.

Weekly Schedule and Earnings

Drivers are scheduled to return home every weekend for at least a 34 hour reset. Flexible scheduling options may also be available depending on individual needs and freight requirements.

Weekly earnings average between $1,500 and $1,800 through mileage pay and available incentive compensation. Specific CPM and bonus information is reviewed during the interview based on the driver's experience and qualifications.

Dedicated Dry Van Freight

This position operates dedicated dry van freight with routes that can run throughout the lower 48 states. Drivers should be comfortable with longer trips and working independently while away from home during the week.

The weekly reset provides a consistent break from the road without requiring the extended time away commonly associated with traditional OTR schedules.

Peterbilt Equipment

Class A CDL Drivers are assigned 2021 or newer Peterbilt 579 tractors. Trucks are equipped with driver comfort features including APUs, inverters, and refrigerators.

Equipment is maintained to support drivers who spend the workweek on the road and return home for their scheduled weekend reset.

Driver Benefits

• $1,500 to $1,800 average weekly pay


• Home every weekend for a minimum 34 hour reset


• Medical, dental, and vision coverage available after 60 days


• 401k with company match available after one year


• One day paid orientation with hotel and applicable expenses covered

Experience Requirements

Applicants must have a valid Class A CDL and at least 2 years of regional or OTR Class A tractor trailer experience within the previous 3 years. Drivers must meet applicable DOT qualification requirements and maintain a commitment to safe and professional operation.

A Different Kind of Driving Environment

Not every experienced driver wants to work for a large carrier where they feel like another truck number. This position provides the equipment and earning potential drivers expect while maintaining the atmosphere of a smaller operation.

For a CDL A Truck Driver in the Hartford area who wants dedicated freight, newer Peterbilt equipment, consistent weekend home time, and weekly earnings up to $1,800, this position offers a solid combination of income and schedule consistency.
