Pay: $1,350 to $1,650 per week
Freight: Regional no-touch freight, approximately 50% drop and hook
Home Time: Home every weekend with a 48-hour reset
Location: Baltimore, MD 21201
• Established customer freight across regional lanes
• Route planning built around familiar delivery areas
• Assigned 2021–2024 Freightliner Cascadia equipment
• Monday through Friday schedule with weekends at home
Most runs average around 250 miles, creating a practical balance between productive driving time and manageable regional trips. All freight is no-touch, and approximately half of the loads are drop and hook to help reduce time spent waiting at shipping and receiving facilities.
Driver Setup
Every CDL-A driver is assigned a late-model 2021–2024 Freightliner Cascadia with no slip seating. Keeping the same truck throughout the workweek provides a more consistent driving environment and allows personal items to remain organized between dispatches.
Each tractor includes double bunks, SiriusXM radio, a 24-inch HD television, refrigerator, battery-powered APU, and a 1,500-watt inverter. These features provide sleeper climate control, food storage, entertainment, and power for personal electronics while drivers are away from home.
Pay & Weekend Home Time
Weekly pay is $1,350 to $1,650, deposited every Friday through direct deposit. Additional compensation is provided for qualifying detention, layovers, breakdowns, and transition time during the first weeks of employment.
Drivers operate Monday through Friday and return home each weekend for a full 48-hour reset. This regular schedule provides two complete days away from the truck and makes it easier to plan personal responsibilities from one week to the next.
Customer Routes
Regional freight moves through established Northeast and Midwest lanes with a combination of live-load appointments and drop-and-hook freight. Approximately 50% drop and hook helps limit unnecessary dock delays while supporting continued movement throughout the week.
