Description
West Michigan has no shortage of people with a fresh Class A license and nowhere to use it. If that sounds like you, here is a fleet that will train you on the road, pay you from the first week, and guarantee your income while you find your footing.
Your First Weeks
You are matched with an experienced trainer and spend 4 to 6 weeks hauling real loads together. Training pays $900 a week. Once your trainer signs off you move into your own truck, and your first 3 months of solo driving are backed by a $1,000 weekly guarantee.

- Dry Van Work: Drop and hook plus some live stops
Where Your Paycheck Lands
- Weekly Average: $1,200 to $1,400
- Rate: A starting rate of 55 cents that grows by a cent for each additional year behind the wheel, up to 65 cents
- Extras: $15 per stop and a monthly bonus for performance
Benefits and Perks
- Medical, dental, and vision after 30 days
