About The Position
American Trucking Group offers Regional, Super Regional, and OTR driving opportunities, with schedules that let drivers choose their preferred balance of miles and home time. Weekly earnings range from $1,200 to $1,500, depending on route type and miles driven. Regional drivers earn $1,200 per week while averaging 2,500–2,600 miles; Super Regional drivers earn $1,300–$1,400 per week while averaging 2,600–2,800 miles; and OTR drivers earn $1,500 per week while averaging 3,000 miles.
