About the job CDL-A Driving Teams - Home Every Week - Retail Freight

Teams usually give up home time to get the big miles. On this account you get both. American Driver is hiring experienced Class A driving teams around Morganton and the Catawba Valley for a dedicated retail fleet out of Newton, NC. Each driver averages $1,500 to $1,700 a week, and the team is home every week.

What each driver earns

  • $1,500–$1,700 average per week
  • $0.74 per mile split between the team, on 4,500–5,000 team miles a week

  • $5,000 sign-on bonus split between the team, $2,500 per driver, paid in steps over your first year

The freight

100% no-touch. Most loads are drop and hook, delivering to retail stores and distribution centers in North Carolina, Virginia, Tennessee, Georgia, Alabama and Maryland. Backhauls are dry freight, and about 75% of them are preloaded.

Home every week, though not always on a weekend. The schedule is flexible and includes nights, weekends and holidays.

Getting started

One paid day in the classroom and one paid ride-along day, $100 each, then your team runs on its own.
