CDL A Truck Driver
About The Position
American Trucking Group is hiring CDL A Truck Drivers for Regional, Super Regional, and OTR routes. Drivers can choose the route type and corresponding balance of miles and home time that works best for them. Weekly earnings range from $1,200 to $1,500, depending on route type and miles driven. Regional drivers average 2,500–2,600 miles per week and are out 7–9 days, with one day at home for every seven days out. Super Regional drivers average 2,600–2,800 miles per week and are out 14 days, followed by two days at home. OTR drivers average 3,000 miles per week and are out three weeks, followed by three days at home. Drivers choose where to take their home time. Drivers operate an automatic Kenworth T680 equipped with Smart Idle, a bunk heater, double bunk, and a 1500-watt inverter. Trucks are serviced every six months. Most freight is 85–90% drop and hook; for loads that require unloading, the company provides an electric floor jack and pays for that work. The company has 30 terminals nationwide, 15 of which include gyms, truck washes, and laundry facilities. The company offers United Healthcare coverage after 60 days and a Fidelity 401(k) with company match after 90 days. Additional pay includes detention pay of $16 per hour after two hours, layover pay of $125 per day after 48 hours, holiday pay of $60 per day, and optional Hazmat pay.
