Job Description - CDL-A Driver Close to Home - Trainees OK

Henderson drivers: a southwest triangle that keeps you close, sometimes with your 34-hour reset at home.

Fresh out of CDL school? This position takes new drivers, and we will walk you through every step.

The numbers

  • Paid $800 per week in training
  • $1,000 a week guaranteed through your first 3 months on your own
  • $1,000 to $1,200 average per week
  • $0.50 per mile starting band
  • 1,900 to 2,000 miles weekly
  • Home every two weeks
  • No hand unloads
  • You get paid weekly

On the road

Runs between Casa Grande, El Paso, Albuquerque, Salt Lake City, Las Vegas and Southern and Northern California.

Shorter runs in heavier traffic, and some holidays are worked.

What the first weeks look like

  1. A recruiter calls you and reviews your CDL and MVR together with you.
  2. You attend orientation (2 days max). The hotel is paid, your one-way bus ticket is reimbursed, and you get $300 for orientation when hired.
  3. You spend 4 to 6 weeks driving with a mentor, learning to back, plan trips, keep logs and fuel. That earns you $800 a week.
  4. You are assigned your own late-model truck (1.5 years old on average), 10-speed or automatic. For 3 months your weekly pay will not go under $1,000.

Questions new drivers ask us

  • "How often will I see home?" You stay close to home and are home every two weeks, sometimes for your reset.
  • "Will my pay drop when training ends?" No. You have a $1,000 weekly guarantee for your first 3 months solo.
  • "My backing is rough." That is normal. You practice for weeks with a mentor beside you before you run solo.
  • "My school was short. Does it count?" If you have at least 120 hours from a CDL school, you qualify.

Benefits (start after 30 days)

Full medical, dental, vision and prescription coverage, a 401(k), an employee stock purchase plan, paid vacation, yearly raises, and a free online degree for you and one family member. Pets and riders are allowed, and trainees can bring a dog once training is done.

Who can apply

  • Valid Class A CDL, 21 or older
  • New driver with a 120-hour school certificate, or 6 months of recent experience
  • Record: no more than 2 moving violations in 2 years, no DUI/DWI in 10
  • Pass DOT physical and drug screening (hair and urine)
