This position works well for drivers who want reliable income and a schedule that remains predictable.
Freight Network
Dry van loads moving across multi-state lanes with most freight being no-touch. Average haul length runs around 700–750 miles, which helps maintain strong weekly mileage. A mix of drop-and-hook and live loads keeps runs balanced while repeat customers help keep freight consistent.
Equipment Setup
Drivers operate 2021 or newer Freightliner and Kenworth tractors with automatic transmissions. Most trucks are equipped with APUs, inverters, and refrigerators to support comfort on longer hauls. Maintenance is handled through the company shop network to help reduce downtime.
Run Structure
12-day operating cycles followed by a full 48-hour reset every other weekend. Trips are typically assigned in advance so drivers know their next move before completing the current load. This setup helps keep schedules steady and miles consistent.
