Job Description
Harpers is a dynamic transportation and logistics company that is committed to providing its drivers with exceptional opportunities and support. Known for its innovative lease purchase program, Harpers partners with one of the largest carriers in the country to offer access to an extensive freight network that spans nationwide. This collaboration enables Harpers to combine the advantages of a mega carrier's vast resources with a small fleet environment that prioritizes personalized service and operational ease. The company's emphasis on lease purchase drivers ensures that these business-minded professionals enjoy top priority, extensive benefits, and a true partnership approach in managing their careers.
The role of an OTR Reefer Lease Purchase Driver at Harpers is designed for individuals seeking to own and operate their own trucks while benefiting from the backing of a large and stable carrier. These drivers earn 82 percent of the gross line haul revenue plus 100 percent of the fuel surcharge, ensuring competitive compensation. The position is ideal for experienced drivers who are ready to take on the responsibilities of managing their business operations while enjoying a plethora of support services including dedicated fleet management, expansive freight opportunities with no brokered loads, and the ability to use customer trailers without incurring rental fees. All trucks provided in this program are recent models from 2023 to 2026 and come with automatic transmissions for easier handling.
Harpers makes the entry into the lease purchase program seamless and accessible, requiring no money down and no credit check to start. The company supports its drivers through comprehensive terminal locations in all major markets, substantial fuel discounts of up to one dollar off per gallon, and a large percentage of drop and hook no-touch freight to simplify operations and reduce physical strain. Drivers also benefit from pre-loaded trailers, 24/7 dispatch support, a reliable 24-hour support system, and manufacturer warranties on their trucks which eliminate out-of-pocket maintenance expenses. The lease purchase plan spans three to four years, offers a 100 percent walk-away lease option, transparent upfront costs with no hidden fees, and includes a one-dollar balloon payment at the end.
Ideal candidates for this program must have a current CDL-A license with a minimum of two years’ experience and a proven record of safe driving with limited violations and preventable accidents over the last three years. Harpers reviews all driver records individually to ensure the best fit for their lease purchase partners. Owner operators are also welcomed into this program, further highlighting the company’s inclusive and supportive approach.
This position is perfect for motivated individuals looking to partner with a reputable and supportive company that prioritizes driver success and ownership. With a focus on refrigerated freight, drivers can expect consistent work that leverages one of the largest and most reliable freight networks available. Harpers champions driver independence while delivering the benefits of large carrier logistics, making this an outstanding opportunity for professional drivers who want to grow their own business and operate in a thriving sector of the transportation industry.
