CDL-A Reefer Driver - New Grads Welcome - West Coast Lanes

Start at $0.60 a mile on a dedicated reefer fleet that runs the West Coast. Drivers here average $1,500 a week, and a full-mileage week reaches $1,800.

That's the offer. Here is how it works.

Pay

Starting rate is $0.60 per mile. It goes to $0.61 at month 7 and $0.62 at month 13. After that it goes up one cent every year until it reaches $0.70. Drivers run 2,800 to 3,000 miles a week. You also get $10 per extra stop and $25 for loads under 50 miles. Paid weekly by direct deposit.

The freight

Dedicated food-product freight, in reefer and dry van. About 40% of loads are drop and hook. The rest are live loads, live unloads and preloads. The fleet runs out of Lathrop and covers five western states: California, Oregon, Washington, Idaho and Utah.

Home time

Home every two weeks. Most holidays you can be home, and if you want to run through a holiday, there's freight for that too.

What it's really like

You'll see mountain passes and winter weather on the Oregon and Utah runs. Some customers take their time on live unloads. Bring patience and a good book. The upside is steady miles every week on the same lanes, so you learn the roads fast.

Recent graduates of a 120-hour or longer CDL-A school are welcome. Your training is paid and takes 3 to 5 weeks with a mentor (200 to 250 hours). After that you join this fleet out of Lathrop.
