LEADING PAY
INDUSTRY LEADING PAY IS JUST THE BEGINNING
Drivers are professionals and we pay them that way. Our competitive base pay for OTR drivers and on our dedicated fleets is paid on practical miles. It sets a foundation for additional income through safety/productivity bonuses, vacation pay based on a driver’s actual pay, profit sharing contributions for retirement, and more. Add it all up and the top 50% of our Crete Carrier and Shaffer Trucking OTR drivers average $103,904 in total compensation.
