How the Schedule Works

Loads are assigned in sequence to keep transitions between pickups and deliveries moving efficiently throughout the week. A Class A CDL driver works through a planned delivery sequence that reduces delays and supports steady progress across each trip.

Drivers are typically out for 7–10 days, followed by a 34–48 hour reset at home. This setup provides a balanced rotation between time on the road and time off.

Equipment & Driver Setup

Drivers operate late-model tractors, including mostly Peterbilt 579 units, configured for regional hauling. Each CDL A driver is assigned a truck to support familiarity and day-to-day efficiency.

Equipment: Inverters installed
Cab Setup: Refrigerator included
Fleet: Assigned, maintained equipment

Earnings & Additional Pay
