CDL A Owner Operators

Clark Transfer has been a cornerstone in the transportation industry for more than 75 years, specializing in providing dependable and high-quality freight services for the entertainment sector. Based in North America, this company is renowned for its commitment to delivering exceptional and specialized transportation solutions tailored for Broadway productions, concerts, theatrical tours, and live entertainment events across the continent. As a trusted transportation partner, Clark Transfer offers a unique niche service, standing apart from the general freight industry by focusing exclusively on the entertainment market, ensuring every delivery meets the industry's rigorous demands.

Clark Transfer is actively seeking experienced Owner Operators to join its exclusive Owner Operator fleet. Unlike typical freight companies, Clark Transfer does not hire company drivers or operate on a lease-purchase basis; instead, it maintains a fleet comprised solely of Owner Operators. This role is perfect for professionals looking for premium freight opportunities accompanied by strong earnings potential and the benefit of driving fewer miles compared to traditional over-the-road (OTR) positions.

The company prides itself on offering remarkable earning potential for its Owner Operators with Solo Operators earning between $200,000 and $250,000 annually, and Team Operators earning from $300,000 to $350,000 or more. Additionally, Clark Transfer guarantees weekly minimum earnings of $3,500 for solo drivers and $5,000 for team drivers, per week worked. Operators typically drive fewer miles annually, with solo owners averaging under 85,000 miles, which adds to a better work-life balance and reduced vehicle wear and tear.

This unique position involves hauling exclusively entertainment freight, which means no-touch freight that requires minimal handling, thereby reducing physical strain on operators. The company provides customized 48-foot and 53-foot trailers, designed to meet the specific demands of entertainment transportation, ensuring that goods arrive securely and on time. Freight operations are year-round, providing consistent work and steady income.

Clark Transfer also offers a comprehensive benefits package to its Owner Operators. Some key perks include quarterly bonuses up to $5,000, a generous $5,000 driver referral bonus, and payment for loaded, empty, bobtail, and detention miles. Fuel surcharges apply on all eligible miles, with a fuel price guarantee averaging $1.60 per gallon or less, which helps operators maintain financial stability amid fluctuating fuel prices. Additional financial benefits include tour base pay ranging from $500 to $700 or more per day plus fuel surcharges, detention pay at $250 per day for singles and $275 per day for teams, and higher-than-standard per-mile rates for bobtail and empty trailer movements.

Moreover, the company supports its Owner Operators with paid cargo liability insurance and covers tolls, permits, and fuel taxes, reducing out-of-pocket expenses. For health and well-being, Clark Transfer provides a company-supported health insurance program, ensuring that operators have access to essential healthcare coverage.

To qualify for these rewarding roles, candidates must be at least 23 years old, possess a valid Class A CDL, and have two or more years of over-the-road experience, including a minimum of six months within the past 12 months. Additionally, operators must own a tractor manufactured in 2021 or newer and be willing to operate nationwide, offering flexibility and exposure to diverse operating environments.
