Chesapeake, VA 23320

Weekly Pay: $1,250 to $1,550

Home Time: Every Other Week for Two Full Days

Freight: Primarily No Touch

Equipment: Peterbilt 579 and Kenworth T680

Guaranteed weekly pay and newer equipment provide additional stability for drivers running an every other week schedule. LEM Trucking is hiring a CDL A Truck Driver in Chesapeake for a position averaging $1,250 to $1,550 per week with primarily no touch freight and two full days at home every other week.

This position is designed for an experienced driver who wants dependable income, modern equipment, and a schedule that provides consistent time off between trips.

Guaranteed Weekly Earnings

Class A CDL Drivers average between $1,250 and $1,550 per week. The position includes a guaranteed weekly paycheck for qualified drivers, helping provide more predictable income when weekly mileage or freight volume changes.

Complete pay and guarantee details are reviewed with drivers during the interview.

Schedule and Home Time

Drivers operate on an every other week home time schedule. After completing the work cycle, drivers return home for two full days before heading back out.

This schedule provides the opportunity to run productive miles while still having planned home time throughout the month.

No Touch Freight

Freight is primarily no touch and includes a combination of drop and hook and live load or unload customers. Drivers can focus on transportation rather than routinely loading or unloading trailers.

The freight structure, guaranteed pay, and established schedule create a straightforward driving opportunity for experienced Class A CDL Drivers who prefer consistency.

Trucks and Benefits

Drivers operate late model Peterbilt 579 and Kenworth T680 tractors equipped with APUs, inverters, and refrigerators for comfort while on the road.

• Average weekly pay of $1,250 to $1,550

• Guaranteed weekly paycheck for qualified drivers

• Primarily no touch freight

• Medical, dental, vision, life insurance, and vacation pay

• Three day paid orientation with company covered expenses

Class A CDL Driver Qualifications

Applicants must have a valid Class A CDL and at least 2 years of verifiable Class A tractor trailer driving experience. Drivers must also meet applicable DOT qualification standards and demonstrate safe, dependable operation.

Consistent Pay and Modern Equipment

Experienced drivers know that a driving position is about more than the advertised CPM. Reliable pay, equipment that is comfortable to live in, predictable home time, and freight that keeps the truck moving all play a role in choosing the right position.

For a CDL A Truck Driver in Chesapeake who is comfortable with an every other week schedule, this opportunity provides guaranteed weekly income, primarily no touch freight, newer Peterbilt and Kenworth equipment, and two full days at home at the end of each work cycle.
