Job description

We are actively hiring experienced Class A CDL Solo OTR Truck Drivers for our modern fleet who live in the Madison, WI area and surrounding communities. Madison serves as a vital and growing hub for us in southern Wisconsin, driven by diverse manufacturing, education, and distribution centers that generate steady freight demand year-round. This strategic location enables efficient routing while offering drivers from the region reliable home time on nationwide runs doing over the road services.

Typical Pay Highlights

• 30% of line haul OR 65¢ per mile + bonuses (the choice most solo drivers prefer)
• Average weekly gross: $1,900 – $2,400 with peaks reaching $2,700+ on legal hours
• Switch between percentage and miles pay whenever you choose
• Drivers earned between $115,000 and $125,000 in 2025.
• Anyone who wants to put in the effort will make good money!

Pay Details & Realistic Expectations

Pay is performance-based. In 2025, 87% of our drivers went with the 30% percentage plan because it consistently delivered better earnings in the current market. Slow season (Q1) typically ranges from $1,900–$2,100 per week with some weeks hitting $2,400. Peak seasons (Q2 and Q4) usually run $2,100–$2,400 with some $2,700 weeks. Q3 is somewhere between. This seasonal pattern has been reliable for the past 25 years. A few exceptional top performers reached $145,000 last year driving full time.

Pay Options

• Percentage Pay (Best Option for Most Solos) - We pay up to 30% of line haul plus bonuses. We intentionally keep miles lower on percentage (2,000–2,500 in slow season and up to 3,000 in busy season) because it maximizes earnings, reduces fuel costs, and helps prevent burnout.
• Miles Pay Option - Switch at any time. Up to $0.65 per mile plus bonuses based on experience and record. Typical miles: 2,500–3,600 per week.
• Team Pay (Miles Only) - Up to $0.75 per mile split. Average $2,000–$2,600 per driver per week. Note: Solo percentage pay is currently the stronger choice in this market.
