Job Description

Dart is a leading logistics and transportation company specializing in providing top-tier opportunities for CDL-A truck drivers who are looking to maximize their independence and earning potential. With a strong reputation in the trucking industry, Dart offers an innovative lease operator program designed for professional drivers who want the benefits of ownership without the associated risks and costs. The company emphasizes flexibility, control, and profitability, allowing drivers to run their own businesses while enjoying the support and resources of an established logistics provider. Dart's business model caters specifically to CDL-A drivers who prefer to operate as contractors with greater autonomy over their schedules and loads.

The role of a Contracting CDL-A Truck Driver at Dart is built around empowering drivers with the freedom to choose their own freight and manage their own business finances. Lease Operators can benefit from top earning potential, with some of the highest earners grossing over $200,000 annually. These professional drivers are compensated through a competitive pay-per-mile rate that includes loaded and empty mileage pay, fuel surcharges, accessorial pay, and bonuses. The program guarantees 99% no-touch freight, meaning less manual labor and more efficient trips, along with various incentives such as the Dart Diamond Rewards annual bonus and referral bonuses to boost overall income.

Operating under Dart's lease program, drivers enjoy lower upfront costs without the burdensome fees typical of traditional truck ownership, such as plate fees, service fees, or unexpected repair bills. This structure allows drivers to focus on their routes and revenues without unnecessary financial strain. Moreover, Dart provides comprehensive support by managing plates, surcharges, settlements, and administrative tasks, so drivers can concentrate on growing their businesses. There is no forced dispatch and no dispatch fees, coupled with immediate, on-demand settlements that keep drivers' cash flow steady.

For CDL-A drivers who are at least 23 years old and possess a minimum of one year of over-the-road CDL-A experience within the last three years, Dart offers a pathway to independence with significant financial rewards and robust operational backing. This role is ideal for truck drivers seeking a streamlined, low-risk opportunity to increase their earnings while maintaining control over their work-life balance. Dart's unique approach balances entrepreneurial freedom with the safety net of professional support, fostering a sustainable and profitable trucking career.
