CDL-A Regional Driver - Home Weekends - CDL Grads Trained

Out on Monday. Home on Saturday. That is the rhythm of this Midwest fleet, and it is why drivers stay. Loads stay inside Ohio, Kentucky, Michigan, Indiana and Illinois, so your weekends belong to you. We are hiring around Bucyrus, Galion, Marion and the rest of north-central Ohio, both new CDL graduates and experienced drivers.

A typical week

You leave home Monday and run short regional loads across five Midwest states. Hauls are short, so you make more stops and more loads, and most of those loads earn load pay on top of miles. By Saturday you are back home for the weekend. Expect 1,500 to 1,800 miles a week, mostly drop and hook and preloaded trailers, with some live loads.

The pay

• $0.56 to $0.59 per mile based on verifiable experience
• $40 load pay on runs under 150 miles
• $25 load pay on runs of 150 to 250 miles
• $15 per extra stop and a performance bonus
• Weekly average: $1,000 to $1,400
• $1,000 weekly guarantee for your first 3 months solo

New CDL graduates

Training pay is $850 a week. You spend 3 to 5 weeks (200 to 250 hours) with a mentor, then move into your own truck on weekend-home lanes. You need a finished CDL-A school of at least 120 hours.

Experienced drivers

With 6 months or more of recent tractor-trailer experience, you start solo right after orientation, and your mileage rate follows your verified experience.
