Job Description

CDL-A Trainee Truck Driver | Paid Training Program | Philadelphia, PA

No Class A Experience Required — Paid Training from Day One

If you’re a newly licensed CDL-A driver in the Philadelphia metro area and ready to start your trucking career the right way, this paid trainee program offers structured on-the-road training, experienced mentorship, and a direct path to a solo OTR driving position with consistent miles and dependable weekly pay.

This is a long-term career opportunity , not a quick-turn trainee seat.

Pay & Compensation

  • Training Pay: $650 per week for 4–6 weeks

  • Solo Pay After Upgrade: $1,000–$1,400+ per week

  • Mileage Pay: $0.43–$0.51 CPM after training (experience based)

  • Stop Pay: $15 per stop once solo

  • Pay Schedule: Weekly direct deposit

Most trainees upgrade to solo quickly once all training benchmarks are met.

Equipment & Freight

  • Assigned late-model automatic tractors after upgrade

  • No-touch dry van freight

  • Mix of drop & hook and live load/unload

  • Nationwide freight lanes

This freight mix allows new drivers to focus on learning and safety without unnecessary complexity.

Schedule & Operating Area

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

  • Operating Area: 48-state OTR after training

  • Home Base: Philadelphia, PA metro region

This is a true over-the-road role designed to build experience and consistency.

Program Requirements

  • Valid CDL-A license (recent graduates encouraged)

  • Willing to run OTR for two consecutive weeks

  • Must live within 200 miles of Philadelphia, PA

  • Strong safety record and professional attitude

Who This Program Is a Fit For

  • Recent CDL school graduates

  • Entry-level CDL-A drivers

  • Drivers seeking their first full-time OTR position

  • Individuals focused on long-term trucking careers

This Program Is Not For

  • Drivers seeking local or home-daily routes

  • Part-time or short-term driving roles

  • Anyone unwilling to operate OTR

Clear expectations lead to better outcomes.

After Training

Upon completion of the trainee phase, drivers are upgraded to solo OTR status with assigned equipment, consistent dispatch, and steady weekly miles. Most drivers see predictable pay shortly after upgrading.
