CDL-A Regional Driver

Regional lane coverage and dependable route planning give this CDL A truck driver position a consistent structure throughout the workweek. Drivers operate established Northeast and Midwest freight corridors with primarily no-touch dry van loads, planned dispatch assignments, and a schedule that provides a full 48-hour reset at home every weekend.

How the Operation Runs

The fleet moves freight throughout Ohio, Pennsylvania, Michigan, New York, New Jersey, Indiana, and surrounding states. Drivers work within repeat regional corridors rather than relying on constantly changing operating areas. This provides greater familiarity with common routes, customer locations, and freight patterns.

Most loads are no-touch dry van, with frequent drop-and-hook freight available throughout the network. Dispatch coordinates upcoming assignments in advance whenever possible to provide better visibility into the next trip and support smoother transitions between loads.

Schedule and Weekly Earnings

Drivers operate Monday through Friday and return home for a full 48-hour reset every weekend. Weekly earnings range from $1,350 to $1,550 based on miles and performance. A $1,200 minimum weekly pay program is available for qualifying drivers, and payroll is processed every Friday.
