Job Description

Riverside Transport is a renowned trucking company known for its dedication to driver satisfaction and operational excellence. Specializing in over-the-road (OTR), dedicated, and yard driving opportunities, Riverside Transport provides flexible career paths to accommodate diverse driver needs. The company operates with a philosophy centered around respect, communication, and consistency, fostering long-term relationships with its drivers. This commitment to a driver-first culture distinguishes Riverside Transport in the freight industry, ensuring drivers have steady pay, reliable home time, and support throughout their employment.

Riverside Transport employs modern equipment, with an average fleet age of less than 18 months, emphasizing safety and comfort on the road. The company's freight consists primarily of 100% no-touch dry van loads, which means drivers can focus more on driving rather than handling freight, leading to more efficient and less stressful trips. With a focus on dependable freight, drivers receive paid miles for both loaded and empty runs while on duty, reinforcing the value Riverside places on every mile traveled.

The CDL-A Truck Driver role at Riverside Transport offers several career options tailored to fit your lifestyle, including OTR, regional, dedicated routes, and yard jockey opportunities in select areas. Pay is competitive, with drivers earning up to $93,600 annually depending on the route, location, and schedule. The pay structure includes a cents-per-mile rate up to $0.70 with scheduled increases after six months. Additionally, drivers receive a $1,500 sign-on bonus and $500 paid orientation, designed to support a strong start with the company.

Riverside Transport also offers an extensive benefits package that includes health, vision, dental insurance, 401(k) with a matching program, paid time off (PTO), holiday pay, health savings account (HSA), and short- and long-term disability coverage. The company's culture promotes mutual respect and trust, exemplified by freedoms like no inward-facing cameras, allowing drivers more autonomy and less surveillance.

Drivers are supported by a well-structured communication system with fewer drivers per dispatcher, enabling better personal attention and quicker responses. Moreover, the company maintains high contracted freight volumes with award-winning shippers, offering consistent work and steady income. The referral program also incentivizes drivers with uncapped bonuses up to $4,500 per referral, encouraging a supportive community environment.

In summary, joining Riverside Transport as a CDL-A Truck Driver means becoming part of a family that values and rewards its drivers. Whether you are seeking long-haul trips, regional schedules, dedicated freight lanes, or yard positions, Riverside provides competitive pay, a strong benefits package, modern equipment, and a supportive work environment. This role is ideal for professional truck drivers committed to a career with a company that prioritizes people first and offers multiple earning paths alongside reliable home time.
