Job description

After-Dark Local Runs Near Chicago | $1,538 Weekly | In Your Own Bed Daily

If you're a night person with a CDL, this one might be your fit. It's a dedicated local fleet where every trip stays short: round trips top out at 91 miles, and you'll haul at least two loads each shift. Three months of CDL-A driving in the past year is all the experience you need.

Earnings

A normal week pays about $1,538, which adds up to roughly $79,976 across a year. You're paid by the mile, and performance bonuses can add to it. Checks come weekly.

How your week runs

You work six days, then get a 34-hour reset. Nights are the main shift. Down the road, set days off may open up, but go in expecting the six-day rhythm. Home time is every day.

What's on the trailer
  • - Around 95% of loads are drop and hook
  • - The other 5% are pallet jack unloads, and those pay extra
  • - Automatic trucks pulling 53' trailers
  • - Every run starts in Chicago
Before you apply
  • - Bring your own ride, since you'll need personal transportation to get to work each day
  • - Hold a valid Class A CDL
  • - Have 3 months of verified CDL-A experience in the last 12 months
  • - Be ready for a urine and hair follicle drug screen

You don't need to hunt down records first. Background questions come later in the hiring process, which is standard for most jobs.

What you get
  • - Dental and vision coverage
  • - Paid time off
  • - A 401(k) plan
