CDL - Regional Flatbed Driver

CDL-A Regional Flatbed Driver | Steady Freight & Home Time

TMT Transportation is the dedicated fleet for a national leader in structural steel distribution. Hauling our own parent company's freight allows us to offer superior stability, consistent year-round volume, and a truly family-oriented atmosphere. If you're looking for a company where you're a name and not a number, you've found it.

Why Drive for TMT?

• Consistent Workload: Our volumes stay steady year-round because we serve our own internal customers-no chasing freight on load boards.
• Pre-Loaded Freight: We utilize drop-and-hook trailers at our warehouses to get you on the road faster. (Note: Occasional live-loading may be required.)
• Modern Equipment: We invest in new tractors and trailers to keep you safe and comfortable.
• Predictable Home Time: Our regional routes are designed to get you home almost every weekend, with the added benefit of potential home time during the week depending on your runs.
• Financial Stability: Backed by a premier steel distributor, we offer reliable weekly pay and long-term job security.
