HIRING AREA

Columbus, Ohio and surrounding Central Ohio hiring area

OTR opportunities may operate throughout multiple regions of the lower 48 states.

LOOKING FOR DRIVERS WHO ACTUALLY WANT TO RUN

A high CPM doesn't mean much if the truck sits.

This opportunity is aimed at experienced CDL-A drivers who are looking at the whole package: miles, equipment, freight, home time, additional pay, and whether the operation can keep a productive driver moving.

Truck Driver Nation recruits qualified CDL-A drivers for motor carriers with available OTR positions. We are currently reviewing drivers for qualifying company-driver opportunities with strong mileage potential, late-model equipment, weekly pay, and multi-state freight.

COMPENSATION

Depending on the specific position and driver qualifications, current opportunities may include:

• Approximately $1,500–$2,250+ weekly earning potential

• Mileage-based compensation on qualifying positions

• Loaded and empty mile compensation on select opportunities

• Weekly pay

• Direct deposit

• Detention compensation when applicable

• Layover compensation when applicable

• Additional-stop pay on qualifying loads

• Clean DOT inspection incentives on select positions

• Driver referral incentives on select positions

Weekly earnings are not guaranteed. Actual compensation depends on the specific motor carrier, miles driven, freight availability, driver availability, qualifications, operating conditions, and applicable compensation plan.

THE FREIGHT

Current qualifying opportunities may include:

• OTR dry-van freight

• No-touch freight on select positions

• Approximately 2,500–3,500+ miles per week when freight and driver availability support it

• Midwest freight

• Southeast freight

• Eastern U.S. freight

• Multi-state OTR lanes

Specific freight, lanes, and weekly mileage vary by carrier and operating conditions.

THE EQUIPMENT

Depending on availability, qualifying positions may offer late-model tractors including:

• Freightliner

• Volvo

• Peterbilt

• Automatic transmissions

• Sleeper equipment

• Power inverter

• Refrigerator

• Electronic logging equipment

Specific tractor year, make, model, amenities, governed speed, and assignment are determined by the applicable motor carrier.

HOME TIME

This is an OTR position.

Available schedules may include approximately:

• 14 days out with scheduled home time

• 21 days out with extended home time

• Longer OTR rotations for drivers who prefer maximizing road time

Home-time arrangements depend on the specific carrier, freight network, driver location, and operational requirements.

We want drivers to understand the expected schedule before accepting a position rather than discovering it after orientation.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

Applicants should generally have:

• Valid Class A CDL

• Current medical qualification

• Approximately 2 years of verifiable tractor-trailer experience

• Acceptable driving record

• Acceptable FMCSA Clearinghouse status

• Ability to satisfy applicable drug and alcohol testing requirements

• Ability to meet DOT and individual motor-carrier qualification standards

• Ability to operate OTR

• Reliable and professional communication

Individual carrier requirements may vary.

TRUCKING IS ABOUT MORE THAN THE ADVERTISED RATE

Experienced drivers already know the questions that matter.

How many miles can I realistically run?

Are loaded and empty miles compensated?

What happens when I'm detained?

What equipment am I getting?

Where am I running?

How long am I expected to stay out?

What happens when freight slows down?

Those details matter just as much as the number at the top of a job advertisement.

Our goal is to review your qualifications and operating preferences against applicable current opportunities rather than pretending every driving job fits every driver.
