  • Load Types: Drop & hook and live load/unload

Who This Program Is For

This CDL-A trainee position is ideal for:
  • Recent CDL school graduates
  • Entry-level CDL-A drivers
  • Drivers seeking their first OTR driving opportunity
This program is not for drivers seeking local, home-daily, or part-time positions.

Why This CDL-A Trainee Program Works

You earn pay from day one, receive hands-on training with experienced mentors, and upgrade quickly into a solo OTR role with consistent miles and predictable income. This is a career-start program, not a short-term trainee seat.

What Happens After Training

After completing the trainee phase, drivers are upgraded to a solo OTR position with assigned equipment, steady dispatch, and access to nationwide freight lanes. Most drivers experience reliable weekly income shortly after upgrading.
