Regional CDL A Driver -$1,800-$2,050/wk - Midwest Dedicated

American Driver
Normal, IL Full Time
POSTED ON 5/5/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 6/3/2026
You're a driver, not a passenger. If you're tired of sitting at receivers for 6 hours only to get paid $20 in detention, it's time to switch to an account that pays for your pulse, not just your pedals.

This is a high-performance, 100% touch-freight dedicated account for the Midwest's hardest workers. We don't "guarantee" a salary because the drivers who run this lane don't want a ceiling on their income. You move the freight; we move the money.

THE PAY MENU (Performance-Based)

Your paycheck is a direct result of your hustle. There is no limit, but here is what the top performers are doing right now:

  • Weekly Miles: 900 – 1,100 miles (Short, dedicated runs).
  • Mileage: $0.82 – $0.88 CPM (Experience-based)
  • Unload pay: $340 per trailer for the unload (Gravity Rollers)
  • The Extra: $25 per backhaul
  • The Total: Average gross $1,800–$2,050/week.
  • Annual Potential: $95,000 – $105,000


THE LIFESTYLE (Home Every Weekend)

We don't believe in "flexible" home time—we believe in scheduled home time.

  • Predictable Resets: Choose Mon–Fri (Sat/Sun off) OR Tue–Sat (Sun/Mon off).
  • Assigned Gear: Late-model Freightliners or Kenworths (Avg. 18 months old).
  • Take It Home: Take your truck home for your reset. No slip-seating.
  • Routes: Dedicated lanes throughout WI, IA, MN, MI, IN, and Northern KY.


THE REALITY CHECK

This is a physical job. You will be working the rollers and delivering 3 to 5 stops per load. If you're looking for a "steering wheel holder" job, keep scrolling. If you're looking to clear six figures while being home every Sunday, hit apply.

DO YOU QUALIFY?

  • Experience: 6 months Class A T/T experience (40ft ) in the last year.
  • Stability: No more than 2 driving jobs in the last 12 months. (We want pros, not hoppers).
  • Location: Must live within 100 miles of Joliet, IL.
  • Safety: Clean MVR and no major preventable accidents in the last 5 years.
  • Testing: Ability to pass a DOT physical, urine, and hair follicle drug screen.


The Benefits

  • Full Health, Dental, and Vision insurance.
  • 401(k) with company match.
  • 72" Raised roof sleepers with APUs and Inverters.


Stop settling for "average." Apply now and expect a call from our team within 24 hours.
