Class A CDL Driver

Job Description

CDL-A drivers searching for a stable regional position with strong pay and consistent home time will find this opportunity a great fit. This role provides a structured five-day workweek with guaranteed weekends off, ensuring a full 48-hour reset at home. Drivers typically earn between $1,400 and $1,500 per week, with a guaranteed minimum of $1,200, providing steady income and reliable miles.

Freight runs throughout the Northeast, covering routes from lower Maine to Atlanta, Georgia, and extending as far west as Illinois. The fleet consists of well-maintained, late-model Freightliner Cascadias from 2019 or newer, designed for both efficiency and driver comfort. Each truck is fully equipped with Sirius XM, a refrigerator, a 24-inch flat-screen TV, a 1500-watt inverter, APU, and double bunks, offering the option to bring a rider. All trucks are automatic, ensuring a smoother and more manageable drive.

Orientation is a quick 2.5-day process, covering all travel expenses. Drivers receive a private hotel room, meals, and $500 in orientation pay, making the transition into the role seamless.

Weekly pay is issued every Friday, and drivers receive a full benefits package, including health insurance, vacation and holiday pay, safety bonuses, and E-Z Pass and I-Pass for added convenience. CK Transportation takes a driver-first approach, ensuring each driver has the resources and support needed to thrive. Pet and rider-friendly policies further promote work-life balance.

Eligible candidates must hold a valid Class A CDL, be at least 21 years old, and meet the necessary experience requirements. This includes at least three months of OTR experience in the past year, six months of OTR or local experience in the last year, or one year of OTR experience in the past three years. Applicants must reside within 75 miles of Columbus, Ohio.

CK Transportation is a family-owned company operating approximately 350 trucks. The company is large enough to offer job stability while remaining small enough to maintain a personal connection with drivers. Positions are available for dedicated, solo, team, regional, and local routes, as well as lease purchase opportunities for van and flatbed drivers.
