Job Description

Bulkley Trucking is a well-established trucking company that has been operational since 1987, known for its commitment to respect, honesty, and delivering good miles. This company prides itself on maintaining a strong, trustworthy relationship with its drivers and clients, adhering to what is called 'The Bulkley Trucking Way.' The company specializes in providing reliable transportation services and boasts a fleet equipped with new automatic Volvo trucks, ensuring efficiency and comfort for drivers on the road. Bulkley Trucking values its workforce highly, offering competitive pay packages along with substantial bonuses and benefits. The company encourages a supportive work environment with team potlucks, a rider pet program, and a celebrated driver appreciation week, all contributing to a positive culture among its team members. Drivers are equipped with the latest technology including Best Pass, DriverWise, and XM Radio, enhancing the overall driving experience. Employment with Bulkley Trucking offers excellent home time options with a 34 or 48-hour reset and a commitment to no-touch freight, making the job less physically demanding for drivers.

The role available is for CDL-A Company Solo and Team OTR Truck Drivers. The position offers a competitive salary range where solo drivers can expect to earn between $70,000 and $85,000+ annually, while team drivers can earn between $78,000 and $90,000+ annually.

Pay is structured based on miles, with solo drivers receiving $0.46 to $0.52 per mile and team drivers receiving $0.57 to $0.67 per mile, plus additional fuel bonuses of up to $0.05 per mile. Drivers also earn per diem amounts—$0.15 for solo and $0.19 for team drivers. Paid orientation ensures new drivers are well-prepared before starting their routes.
