About this job
Our company is hiring semi-local CDL-A drivers out of Lansing, MI. The work is mostly no-touch, drop-and-hook retail delivery around the Midwest, with a few nights out each week and a fixed Tuesday-to-Saturday schedule.
Pay
- Weekly pay of $1,600-$1,800, which the company estimates at $84,000-$90,000 a year.
- Stop pay is $20 on regional runs and $30 on local runs, plus $30 for backhaul pickups.
- You also earn $20 per hour hourly/safety pay.
- Breakdown pay is $25 per hour once a breakdown passes 2 hours, capped at $300 per day depending on the breakdown type.
- A $100 weekly reliability payment is available if you meet the eligibility rules.
- Training is paid and lasts about 3 days.
Schedule and home time
- You work Tuesday through Saturday, starting at 6:00 PM, and have Sundays and Mondays off.
- Expect 2-3 nights out per week and home the rest of the time; your truck stays at the terminal while you are home.
- You may work a holiday if it lands on a scheduled workday.
- More routes and shifts open up as you build time on the account.
What you'll haul
- Deliveries go to about 40 retail stores in Illinois (not downtown Chicago), northern Indiana, Michigan including the Upper Peninsula, Ohio and Wisconsin. Most stops are in the Chicago suburbs.

- You also shuttle between the Lansing and Pleasant Prairie distribution facilities.
- The equipment is a single-bunk sleeper pulling 45', 48' or 53' box trailers.
Requirements
