Why Drive for Lone Star Transportation

At Lone Star, heavy haul isn't a side operation - it's the whole game. This is specialized work that demands real skill, and Lone Star pays for it. With a structured Career Advancement Program and access to heavy haul, blade hauling and other freight, drivers have a clear path to premium loads and long-term earning growth.

If you're ready to run challenging freight, earn more for your expertise, and be backed by a company that invests in your future, Lone Star is where you level up.

Specialized CDL-A Driver Overview

  • Earning power that matches your skill. Top experienced drivers earn up to $150,000 per year. Pay is structured by experience and freight type - CPM drivers earn 62-68 base CPM plus a 2 CPM safety bonus, while salary-based drivers earn $1,325-$2,500 weekly with an additional 5-10% based on the freight being hauled.*
  • Freight as diverse as your skill set. Lone Star hauls a wide range of specialized loads - wind blades, heavy haul, oversized freight, and more. Wind drivers rotate between blade hauling and heavy haul as projects and demand dictate, keeping the work varied and the miles consistent.
  • Extended runs built for stronger earning weeks. Drivers typically head home every 2-3 weeks, stacking serious miles and income before a scheduled reset.
  • Get paid to get started. Earn a $6,000 sign-on bonus plus $1,200* in orientation pay, putting serious money in your pocket before your first run.
  • Nationwide freight that keeps you moving. Hiring across all 48 contiguous states with freight lanes designed to keep miles consistent.

Benefits & Perks

  • Coverage that backs you up. Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance, plus 401(k) with company match and paid time off.
  • Extras that matter on the road. No-cost rider program, toll tags, and CAT Scale pass included.
  • Referral rewards that add up. Earn $4,500 per driver you refer, paid out over six months at $750 per month, on top of your regular pay.*
  • More ways to earn on every load. Earn a $100-$250 safe delivery bonus per load delivered when load requirements are met, on top of the clean inspection bonus and quarterly safety bonus.*

All pay and bonus amounts may vary by job type, location, experience level, and performance and are subject to change based on company discretion. Talk with a recruiter to confirm specific details.

There is no deadline to apply. Applications are accepted on an ongoing basis.
