  • An extra $200 for paid holidays
  • Paid every week
  • Compensation for all miles, loaded and empty

Home time

  • Expect to be out 14–18 days at a stretch

  • Newer trucks (2023 and up) from Peterbilt, Kenworth and Freightliner
  • Both automatic and manual transmissions available
  • Support team available around the clock
  • Pets welcome under the company's pet program
  • Spouses may ride along under the passenger policy

New to trucking?

If you're a newer CDL-A driver with less than a year of verifiable experience, CORE48 has a path for you:

  • Pay starts at $.51–$.52 CPM
  • 95% of drivers earn an extra $.05 CPM monthly safety bonus, bringing total pay to $.56–$.57 CPM
  • You should be willing to stay out 2–3 weeks at a time and keep safety front of mind

Former owner-operators

If rising fuel and operating costs have you ready to step away from owning your truck, CORE48 offers a place to settle back in as a company driver.

Requirements

  • Valid CDL-A
  • Must have graduated from training within the last 90 days
  • Tanker experience preferred
  • Must meet DOT requirements
