CDL-A Regional Driver - Home Every 2 Weeks - New CDL Welcome

Job Description

Job Description

We are hiring Class A drivers in Fort Bend County and southwest Houston for a regional dry van fleet that keeps you in the middle of the country and often routes you back through the house. You run Texas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, Arkansas and the Mid-South, home every two weeks, at about $1,100 to $1,300 a week. Your first 3 months solo carry a $1,000 weekly minimum. New CDL holders train with a mentor at $850 a week. Drivers with 6 months or more of recent experience go solo after orientation.

What you get

• $0.50 to $0.72 per mile based on verifiable experience
• 1,700 to 2,000 miles a week
• About $1,100 to $1,300 a week
• $1,000 weekly minimum for your first 3 months solo
• $15 per stop
• $850 a week during training
• Home every two weeks, often through the house in between
• Your own assigned truck, about 1.5 years old on average
• Paid weekly by direct deposit

What we ask

• Run regional lanes across Texas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, Mississippi, Arkansas, Tennessee and Alabama, with some loads into Kansas, Missouri, Iowa and Illinois
• Handle a mix of drop and hook, preloads, live loads and live unloads
• Work weekends, and plan time off ahead, since some customers need holiday coverage
• Be ready for different customers week to week. This is regional, not dedicated

How you get started

A recruiter calls and reviews your license and record. Orientation is in Houston, two days at most, with your hotel covered and your bus ticket paid back, and pays $300 once you are hired. New drivers then ride with a mentor for 3 to 5 weeks, about 200 to 250 hours. With 6 months of OTR experience in the last 12 months, you skip that step and start solo. A TWIC card helps but is not required.

Benefits after 30 days

Medical, dental, vision and prescription. 401(k) and employee stock purchase plan. Paid time off. A free online degree for you and one family member. Approved riders and one dog under 40 pounds after training.

Requirements

• Class A CDL from your state of residence, 21 or older
• Completed CDL-A training at a truck driving school (minimum 120 hours), or 6 months of OTR experience in the last 12 months
• No more than 2 moving violations in the last 2 years
• No DUI/DWI in the last 10 years
• DOT physical, hair and urine drug screen
