Choose the Best

When considering a career in trucking, choosing the right company can make all the difference. Here are several compelling reasons to join us:

Competitive Earnings

One of the most attractive aspects of our company is the competitive pay structure. Drivers earn 82% of the gross load, which translates to significant weekly earnings. On average, our drivers take home between $2,300 to $4,000 each week, depending on the number of miles covered. This pay model ensures that your efforts directly contribute to your financial success, rewarding you proportionally for your hard work and dedication.

High-Quality Equipment

We provide our drivers with top-of-the-line equipment to ensure safety, efficiency, and comfort. Our fleet consists of 2022-2024 Freightliner Cascadias and Volvo 860s, equipped with powerful inverters, fridges, and an HVAC system that does not require the truck to idle. These trucks are among the most fuel-efficient on the road, helping you save on fuel costs.

Flexible Leasing Options

We offer both rental and lease-purchase programs. Our lease-purchase program allows drivers to own their truck in three years without a balloon payment at the end. This flexibility provides you with the opportunity to choose the financial path that best suits your needs and long-term goals.

Educated Dispatch System

Our dispatch system is designed to balance your preferences with the needs of the business. While there are times when loads must be taken without refusal to maintain strong relationships with brokers, our experienced dispatchers generally strive to accommodate your desired routes. This educated dispatch approach ensures that you have a say in your routes while maintaining steady work.

Support for Your Journey

We understand that being on the road for extended periods can be challenging. Therefore, we provide comprehensive support to make your journey as smooth as possible. We cover the costs for cargo and liability insurance and trailer rent, allowing you to focus more on driving and less on administrative concerns.

Home Time

We value the importance of work-life balance. Typically, our drivers are on the road for three weeks at a time, followed by 3-4 days of home time. This schedule allows you to enjoy quality time with your loved ones regularly, making it easier to manage personal commitments and maintain a healthy lifestyle.

We aim to make your transition into our company as seamless as possible. We cover the costs of your hotel, and Uber from the airport for orientation, we reimburse flights and travel to orientation,  which takes place in Bloomingdale, IL.
