About this job

Our company is hiring CDL-A drivers near Hueytown, AL for OTR runs hauling 100% no-touch dry van freight. You get your own assigned truck, no slip seating, and a mentorship path if you're new to the seat. Both brand-new CDL-A holders and experienced drivers can apply.

Getting started

  • You're paid $300 for orientation, and the company covers your transportation to get there
  • If you're newly licensed, you'll go through a 3 to 5 week mentorship (roughly 200 to 250 hands-on hours) with guaranteed weekly pay the whole time
  • If you already have solo experience and meet the requirements, you skip straight to running solo

What you'll haul

  • Dry van freight only, and it's 100% no-touch
  • You're assigned one truck for the job, a 2024 or newer Kenworth T680 or Freightliner Cascadia with an automatic transmission
  • That same truck comes home with you on your days off

Home time

  • Expect 14 days on the road followed by 2 full days home

Pay once you're solo

  • Average gross pay runs $1,400 to $1,600 a week
  • Drivers in the top 25% average as much as $1,800 a week gross
  • Your earnings depend on CPM rate, miles run, and performance
  • You're paid every week by direct deposit

Requirements

  • At least 21 years old
  • Hold a valid Class A CDL and current DOT medical card
  • Clean driving record and solid work history
  • Able to pass a DOT drug screen and background check
  • Meet all other DOT and company standards

Experience needed

  • New to the industry: you'll need 120+ hours of training from an accredited CDL school and to finish the company's training program
  • Experienced: at least 6 months of verifiable solo driving (time spent training with a mentor doesn't count toward this)

Benefits

  • Medical, dental and vision coverage
  • 401(k) plan
  • Paid time off
  • Weekly pay by direct deposit

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