It starts with a phone call. Our recruiter checks your license and driving record with you up front, so you know where you stand.
Orientation takes 2 days at most. We cover the hotel and pay you back for a one-way bus ticket. Once you are hired, orientation pays $300.
Then 4 to 6 weeks on the road with a trainer. They sit beside you while you learn to back up, plan a trip, run your logs and fuel. You earn $650 a week the whole time.
Then the truck is yours. An assigned truck, about 1.5 years old on average, automatic or 10-speed. Your first 3 solo months come with a $1,000 weekly guarantee.
The things new drivers ask most
Mixed lanes and customers, drop and hook, live loads and preloads.
