WEL Companies

WEL Companies | Average $1,400/Week | Home Weekly | Performance-Based Advancement

WEL Companies is changing the way professional drivers get paid—and the way they get home.

We've redesigned our fleets around what drivers want most: better earnings, better home time, and a clear path to earning more. Every experienced company driver begins in our Regional Pro Fleet , where you'll enjoy consistent regional freight, competitive daily pay, weekly incentives, and the opportunity to advance into one of our higher-paying Elite Fleets after just 30 days based on performance.

If you're looking for a regional driving position that values your time on the road and your time at home, WEL Companies is ready to put you in the driver's seat.

Pay & Compensation

Regional Pro Drivers earn an average of $1,400 per week , with a compensation package designed to reward both performance and professionalism.

  • $200 per day base pay
  • $30 per additional stop
  • Drivers average approximately 4 paid stops per week (an additional $120 weekly )
  • Paid detention time
  • Vacation pay at your daily rate
  • OTR resets paid at your full daily rate whenever applicable

Weekly Performance Bonuses

Earn additional incentives each week by meeting performance standards:

  • $25 MPG Incentive
  • $25 Motive Safety Incentive
  • $25 Service Incentive

To qualify, drivers must maintain:

  • 7.7+ MPG
  • Motive Safety Score of 90 or higher
  • 95% or higher service score
