About this job

Run local intermodal freight out of Harrisburg, PA and be home every single day. This company-equipment position pays mileage plus multiple extra-pay opportunities, with drivers averaging about $92,000 a year over the past 6-12 months, and a $10,000 bonus is currently available for a limited time.

Pay

  • $0.62-$0.67 per mile
  • $88 for live stops
  • $57 for drop/hook
  • $23-$33 per hour for detention
  • Extra pay for qualifying Hazmat loads, driver unloads, assists, delays, and similar tasks
  • $200/day during new-hire training
  • $210/day for holidays worked
  • $10,000 limited-time bonus

Home time

You'll work a true local route, staying within about a 250-mile radius of Harrisburg and returning to the terminal daily. No driving into NYC is required.

Schedule

Choose between a Thursday-Monday or Friday-Tuesday workweek, with shift starts falling somewhere between 4:00 PM and 11:00 PM. Your recruiting manager will go over exact start times with you during onboarding based on what's open, and you'll need to be flexible about which shift you're assigned at first — better shifts can open up as you build seniority.

What you'll haul

You'll shuttle intermodal containers between Harrisburg's two local rail yards, with Norfolk Southern facilities getting priority for loading and unloading. Expect to run roughly 2-5 loads each day, all within the local service area.

Requirements

  • Valid Class A CDL
  • Live within 40 miles of Harrisburg, PA
  • At least 21 years old
  • Able to drive both manual and automatic trucks (an automatic-only restriction may limit which trucks you can be assigned)
  • Open to working either a Thursday-Monday or Friday-Tuesday schedule, including evening/overnight start times between 4:00 PM and 11:00 PM
  • Willing to accept whatever start shift is available
  • Hazmat endorsement not required when you're hired, but you'll need to get it within 60 days — related Threat Assessment and fingerprinting costs (about $60 total) are reimbursed with receipts

Equipment

Trucks are company owned, average around 2 years old, and include both manual and automatic transmissions. Maintenance is handled onsite.

Benefits

  • Home every day with consistent, year-round freight
  • PTO starts building from your first day
  • Medical, dental, and vision coverage kicks in after 30 days
  • 401(k) with a company match
  • 6 paid holidays
  • Parental leave and family planning support
  • Life insurance options
  • Disability coverage
  • Onsite management and maintenance support

The hiring carrier's name is shared with you once you apply through the DriverRoll app, where you can message them directly.
