Herman N Logistics

This one is for drivers who don't mind real work and want to be paid well for it. You'll run regional retail deliveries out of Front Royal to stores across Virginia, North Carolina, DC, Pennsylvania, New Hampshire, Ohio and West Virginia, all within about 700 miles of the DC area. Unloading is by hand, box by box, so the pay is built to match. If you've got 6 months of verified tractor-trailer experience in the past 3 to 5 years and a clean record, you can apply.

The money

Drivers average about $1,750 a week, roughly $89,000 a year, and top performers reach $2,000 a week. Base mileage runs from $0.77 to $0.80 depending on tenure, and the effective all-in rate can climb as high as $1.44 per mile. On top of mileage you earn:

- $265 for every full trailer unload

- $15 for every stop

- $35 for every backhaul

- A $125 weekly bonus when you complete 3 or more loads

Pay arrives weekly.

The sign-on bonus

You get $2,500, paid in installments over your first six months:

- $250 on your first load

- $250 at 30 days

- $250 at 60 days

- $500 at 90 days

- $250 at 120 days

- $250 at 150 days

- $750 at 180 days

The week

You're home weekly with a 34-hour reset. Expect 3 or more loads a week, about 1,100 miles, with 1 to 6 stops per trailer. Nights, weekends and holidays can fall inside your shift cycle. Your first week is paid ride-along training at $150 a day.

Good to know before you apply

- Dispatch and maintenance support is on site around the clock

Who we'd love to hear from

- A Class A CDL (a doubles endorsement is nice to have, not required)

- 6 months of verified tractor-trailer experience in the past 3 to 5 years

- A clean driving record

- Comfort with a urine and hair follicle drug screen

No records to dig up before you apply. Background questions come later in hiring, like at most jobs.
