If you're looking for consistent refrigerated freight, strong revenue sharing, fuel discounts, and added peace of mind, the Pro Fleet offers an outstanding opportunity to maximize your earnings while protecting your investment.

Revenue & Compensation

As a Pro Fleet Independent Contractor, you'll receive:

Pro Fleet Advantage

In addition to everything offered through our Base Independent Contractor program, Pro Fleet contractors receive an added layer of financial protection.

Truck Payment Protection

If you're unable to work three or more days during a payroll week due to WEL-related issues , you may qualify for:

  • One-half truck payment credit
  • Available once per month (additional approvals available through committee review)

This benefit helps offset unexpected downtime, allowing you to bank those savings toward family vacations, retirement, college savings, or future business investments.

  • Consistent refrigerated freight
  • Premium customer freight
  • Reliable year-round freight
  • Driver-focused dispatch

  • Reliable freight planning
  • Access to WEL's established freight network
  • Professional operations support

Schedule & Flexibility

As an Independent Contractor, you'll maintain the flexibility of operating your own business while honoring accepted dispatch and freight commitments.

The Pro Fleet is designed for contractors who are committed to delivering exceptional service while enjoying the freedom of business ownership.

Driver Requirements

  • Valid Class A CDL
  • Qualified Independent Contractor or Owner-Operator
  • Approved for WEL's Pro Fleet Independent Contractor program
  • Ability to operate under a revenue-sharing agreement
