Job Description - CDL-A OTR Driver

Central New York Class A drivers: some of the best mileage pay on the board, home weekly, with a paid start for new grads.

This seat pays well because you earn it — the freight is hand-unload, and the mileage rate is high to match. If you don't mind touching freight, few OTR seats pay like this, and you're home once a week.

What you'll earn

  • $0.80 a mile to start, rising $0.01 a year to $0.85
  • About 1,900 miles a week
  • $15 per stop
  • Paid weekly, direct deposit

Your week

OTR lanes across the Northeast. Freight is full hand-unload with load and unload assist. Home once a week — staying out through one weekend lets your planner build full miles. A dedicated planner works your production around your ability.
