If you’re a newly licensed CDL-A driver looking to start your trucking career with the right foundation, our CDL-A trainee program serving drivers in and around the Columbus, Ohio metro area provides paid training, hands-on mentorship, and a clear upgrade path to a solo OTR driving position with consistent miles and reliable weekly income.
This opportunity is designed for drivers who want stability, structured support, and long-term career growth — not a quick turnover trainee role.

OTR Schedule: 12–14 days out with a 34-hour home reset

Home Base: Columbus, OH metro region
This is a true over-the-road position intended to build experience and consistency.
