Full Description
Steady OTR Miles | Home Every Other Weekend
$1,300-$1,500 Weekly Average | No-Touch Dry Van
Hiring Area: Pittsburgh
CDL-A drivers needed for an OTR dry van fleet hiring out of the Pittsburgh area. This position offers steady miles, repeat freight lanes, and a 12-day schedule with dependable home time. It is a strong fit for drivers looking for consistent freight, organized dispatch, and reliable weekly earnings with year-round freight demand.
Schedule
Drivers are typically out 12 days followed by a full 48-hour reset at home every other weekend. This schedule helps drivers maximize miles while still receiving regular planned time at home. Average haul lengths are 700-750 miles, helping keep trucks moving and reducing excessive short runs.
Pay
Average weekly earnings range from $1,300 to $1,500 depending on miles and experience. Consistent freight volume helps support dependable weekly paychecks. Detention pay is available when delays qualify, adding additional earning opportunities when drivers are held up beyond normal loading times.
Freight
Dry van freight runs established interstate lanes with steady customer demand throughout the year. Most loads are no-touch, with a mix of drop-and-hook and live loads. This combination helps drivers stay productive while minimizing unnecessary downtime between shipments and delays.
Equipment
Drivers operate late-model Freightliner and Kenworth tractors with automatic transmissions. Most trucks include APUs, inverters, and refrigerators for added comfort while on the road. Reliable equipment and scheduled maintenance help reduce downtime and keep drivers on schedule.
Benefits
Medical, dental, vision, paid vacation, and 401(k) become available after 6 months. These benefits help provide added long-term value for drivers and their families with dependable coverage options.
