Description
Northshore drivers: eastern lanes, steady miles, and a paid start for new CDL grads.
Loads stay east and do not go far west, so the routes get familiar fast. You train with a mentor first, paid, then run solo.
What you earn
- Paid every week during training
- $1,000 a week guaranteed for your first 3 months solo
- $1,200 to $1,800 a week once solo
- $0.55 a mile to start, +$0.01 a year up to $0.65
- 2,000 to 2,500 miles a week
- $15 stop pay
- Weekly direct deposit
Your week
Eastern regional lanes, a mix of drop and hook and live freight. Out about two weeks, then home. Day and night dispatch.
New CDL? Here is the path
- Call: we check your license and record with you first. No surprises later.
- Orientation: up to 2 days, hotel covered, bus fare reimbursed, $300 once hired.
- Training: 4 to 6 weeks one-on-one with a mentor, paid every week.
- Solo: your own assigned truck, fleet average about 1.5 years old. For your first 3 months solo, your pay will not drop below $1,000 a week.
Nervous about your first driving job? Fair.
- "How often will I see home?" Every two weeks.
- "Does my CDL school count?" If it was 120 hours or more, yes.
- "Will one ticket disqualify me?" Not by itself. Up to 2 moving violations in the past 2 years is accepted.
- "What if I have a problem on the road?" Loads are planned for you, and your driver leader picks up the phone.
- "What if my first solo weeks are slow?" You still get at least $1,000 a week for your first 3 months solo.
What you need
- Class A CDL from your state of residence, 21 or older
- New CDL grad with 120+ school hours, or 6 months of recent experience
- No more than 2 moving violations in the past 2 years
- No DUI/DWI in the past 10 years
- DOT physical and hair and urine drug screen
Benefits after 30 days
- Medical, dental, vision and prescription
- 401(k) and employee stock purchase plan
- Paid time off and yearly raises
- Free online degree for you and one family member
- Pet and rider programs (your dog can ride with you once training is done)
