- Hands-on Class A tractor-trailer operations in regional terrain.
- ELD systems and strict Hours-of-Service (HOS) compliance.
- Thorough pre-trip and post-trip vehicle inspections (DVIR).
- Standard dispatch communication and corporate logging procedures.
Operational Details
Once you clear training and transition to a solo driver, your routine will consist of:
- Freight: Consistent regional dry van freight.
- Home Time: Scheduled weekly -BI WEEKLY home time for proper rest.
- Equipment: Late-model, fully maintained, and 100% DOT-compliant fleet.
- Compliance: Maintenance of accurate logs and professional communication with dispatch at all times.
