About the job CDL-A Company Driver - Southeast Lanes - Weekly Home Time

Home every week, no freight to touch, and a terminal minutes from your door. That is the regional seat American Driver is filling in Green Cove Springs, Middleburg, Fleming Island and Orange Park. You run dry van across the Southeast out of Jacksonville and you are home for your 34-hour reset every week. You need at least 3 months of tractor-trailer experience. Here are straight answers to what drivers ask us first.

What does it pay?
$1,250 to $1,600 a week. Mileage pay is $0.48 to $0.60 per mile based on verifiable experience. Each month you can earn up to 3 more cents per mile for safety, miles and productivity. Loyalty pay starts after 12 months, and raises come every year. You are paid weekly.

How many miles?
1,800 to 2,500 a week. The average load is about 300 miles.

Will I unload?
No. The freight is 100% no-touch. About half the loads are drop and hook. On live unloads, the customer does the work.

Where will I run?
Eight of every ten loads stay in Florida, Georgia, Alabama, Tennessee, the Carolinas and Virginia. A few go as far as Kentucky, Maryland, southern Pennsylvania, Mississippi or southern Louisiana.

What if I'm stuck at a dock?
