CDL-A Dedicated Driver - Store Delivery Routes - Home Every Week
About The Position
American Driver is hiring CDL-A drivers for dedicated retail store delivery routes serving the Florida Panhandle and Gulf states. Drivers deliver store freight on early-morning routes and unload trailers box by box using rollers. Routes have 1 to 6 stops; drivers typically complete about 3 loads and 1,600 miles per week. Lanes remain within Florida, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, and Louisiana. Some weeks include nights, weekends, or holidays, and drivers are home weekly for a 34-hour reset. Pay is $0.55–$0.58 per mile based on verifiable experience, plus $240 for each full trailer unloaded and $50 per backhaul. Weekly pay is typically $1,400–$1,800. A $2,000 sign-on bonus is paid in installments: $500 after the first load, $500 at 30 days, and $1,000 at 60 days. After orientation in Jacksonville, drivers ride along with an experienced driver on the route and are paid $150 per day during the ride-along. Drivers operate International, Freightliner, or Kenworth trucks, with support staff available on site 24/7. Drivers must bring two weeks of supplies to orientation and have secure truck-and-trailer parking for home time, either on their own property or in a gated lot with a guard or cameras. Store lots and Walmart parking do not qualify.
