CDL-A Western OTR Driver - Long Hauls - Paid Training

We are hiring Class A drivers in the Texas Panhandle for a western OTR fleet that runs every state west of the Mississippi River. These are long hauls on open roads, the kind of miles that keep a truck moving and a paycheck steady. Drivers run 2,100 to 2,400 miles a week and average $1,100 to $1,200, with a $1,000 weekly minimum for the first 3 months solo.

You are home every two to three weeks. New CDL holders train with a paid mentor. Drivers with 6 months or more of recent experience start solo after orientation.

You run dry van freight across the West: the Plains, the Rockies, the desert Southwest and the coast. Hauls are long, so you spend your day driving, not sitting e loads are drop and hook or preloaded, some are live. Dispatch runs day and night, weekends are worked, and some holidays are too.

A recruiter calls and reviews your license and record. Orientation takes two days at most, with your hotel covered and your bus ticket paid back, and pays $300 once you are hired. New drivers then train 3 to 5 weeks, about 200 to 250 hours, at $650 a week. If you have 6 months of OTR experience in the last 12 months, you skip training and go solo.
