  • Routes : Primarily along the eastern seaboard, with minimal travel far west.
  • Schedule : Drivers are home every other week for two days, typically on weekends.
  • Training :

    • Requires 250-300 hours behind the wheel.
  • Pay :
    • Starting solo pay: $0.55 per mile (CPM).

Pros:

  • Comprehensive training (250-300 hours) compared to some companies offering minimal training (e.g., 1 week or
  • Home time every other week, typically on weekends, is predictable.
  • Benefits kick in after 30 days, which is relatively quick.
  • Pet and rider policies from day one (post-training) are attractive for work-life balance.

 

Cons:

 

  • Training pay ($650/week) may be low for some, especially if training extends due to hours requirement.
  • OTR during training could mean less predictable routes or time away from home initially.
  • Geographic limitation to the eastern seaboard might not suit drivers wanting more diverse routes.
  • Stringent background requirements (e.g., no misdemeanors/felonies in 10 years, strict DUI rules) may disqualify some candidates.
