CDL A Solo OTR Truck Driver - Jackson OTR Division

$1,900 - $2,400 per week

DSL Express

About the Job

We are actively hiring experienced Class A CDL Solo OTR Truck Drivers for our modern fleet who live in the Jackson, MS area and surrounding communities . Jackson is an important market for us with consistent freight opportunities flowing through the region. Our routes are set up to start and end efficiently in this area, allowing local drivers to enjoy better home time while running solid nationwide OTR loads.

Typical Pay Highlights:

  • 30% of line haul OR 65 by the mile + bonuses (the choice most solo drivers prefer).
  • Average weekly gross: $1,900 - $2,400 with peaks reaching $2,700+ on legal hours.
  • Switch between percentage and miles pay whenever you choose.
  • Full-time floor in 2025 was $104,130 - no steady driver earned less.
  • Top performers reached $145,000 last year.
  • Anyone who wants to put in the effort will make good money!
Pay Details & Realistic Expectations:

Pay is 100% performance-based. In 2025, 87% of our drivers went with the 30% percentage plan because it consistently delivered better earnings in the current market. Slow season (Q1) typically ranges from $1,900-$2,100 per week with some weeks hitting $2,400. Peak seasons (Q2 and Q4) usually run $2,100-$2,400 with some $2,700 weeks. Q3 is somewhere between. Consistent drivers earned between $115,000 and $125,000 in 2025. This seasonal pattern has been reliable for the past 25 years.

Pay Options:
  • Percentage Pay (Best Option for Most Solos) - We pay up to 30% of line haul plus bonuses. We intentionally keep miles lower on percentage (2,000-2,500 in slow season and up to 3,000 in busy season) because it maximizes earnings, reduces fuel costs, and helps prevent burnout.
  • Miles Pay Option - Switch at any time. Up to 65 cents per mile plus bonuses based on experience and record. Typical miles: 2,500-3,600 per week.
  • Team Pay (Miles Only) - Up to 75¢ per mile split. Average $2,000-$2,600 per driver per week. Note: Solo percentage pay is currently the stronger choice in this market.
Apply here and get approved faster - .

Important Info About Our Work Ethic:

We receive a large number of applications and are selective - we only want "A" stringers and true professionals. Honest, motivated, and hard-working drivers do very well here and are treated like family. If you prefer taking it easy, missing loads, or spending time at truck stops, this opportunity is not the right fit. We are fair, but success depends on your effort.

Sound harsh? Good. The truth matters. We still miss the veteran drivers who left after the 2019 ELD mandate. Respect to everyone still out here grinding.

Still here? Great - Here's the link again:

What Makes DSL Express Different:
  • We are a well-established company with 25 years in business since 2001 - large enough to offer strong support and modern equipment, yet small enough that every driver matters.
  • We welcome veterans and give fair-chance employment to anyone ready to work hard.
  • 24/7 dispatch from three offices with real experienced staff.
  • Modern trucks (mostly automatics with some manuals available) equipped with fridges and inverters.
  • Company-owned mechanic shops in Chicago and Las Vegas.
  • Dedicated dispatchers who learn your style and preferences.
  • All no-touch freight in dry van or reefer trailers.
  • Strong carrier partnerships that combine big-company resources with a family-owned feel.
Perks:
  • No forced dispatch.
  • Ability to take the truck home during hometime with parking support.
  • Fuel cards and EZ-Passes provided.
  • Weekly direct deposit.
  • Flexible and reliable home time.
  • Hazard occupational insurance covering lost wages, medical, and beneficiary.
  • Monthly bonuses for safety, delivery performance, and communication.
  • Extra bonuses for successful DOT inspections.
Job Description:
  • Class A CDL required (additional endorsements a plus).
  • Minimum 2+ years verifiable CDL experience.
  • Clean MVR and acceptable PSP report.
  • Dry van or reefer - all no-touch freight.
  • Must be comfortable with modern ELD systems and able to pass pre-employment drug screen.
Minimum Driver Qualifications:
  • Must be physically fit and prepared for the demands of over-the-road driving.
  • Valid Class A CDL with no pending suspensions.
  • Up-to-date valid medical card.
  • No failed or refused drug/alcohol tests in the last 4 years.
  • No DWI, DUI, or BAC convictions in the last 4 years.
  • No reckless driving convictions in the last 3 years.
  • No more than 3 moving violations or accidents in the last 3 years.
  • No license suspension for points or unpaid tickets in the last 3 years.
  • No more than 2 moving violations in the past year.
  • At least 3+ years of verifiable work history (including non-driving time).
