Job Description

Koch Trucking is a prominent division within Koch Companies, which is known for its comprehensive array of transportation services including truckload freight hauling, logistics, warehousing, and truck/trailer leasing. With a well-established reputation in the industry, Koch Trucking offers drivers an opportunity to join a top-rated workplace culture that has been recognized by notable organizations such as the Women in Trucking Association and the Minneapolis Star Tribune. The company prides itself on its commitment to diversity, inclusivity, and the overall satisfaction of its employees, making it an excellent choice for a career in the trucking industry.

This particular hiring drive focuses on Class A CDL truck drivers for Koch Trucking's flatbed division. The company welcomes experienced company drivers, owner-operators, military veterans, and women to apply, reflecting its stance as an equal opportunity employer. The driving role is centered around hauling oversized flatbed loads with a modern and well-equipped fleet that averages just 16 months in age. Koch Trucking prioritizes driver comfort and safety, evidenced by their trucks, such as the Volvo 860 and Freightliner Cascadias, which feature leather interiors, refrigerators, double bunks, built-in inverters, and more.

Drivers in this position can expect competitive compensation with starting pay of $0.64 per mile and average annual earnings of $88,000, with top performers earning up to $98,000. The Company also offers a variety of pay incentives including stop pay at $30 per stop, securement pay at $25 per stop, tarp pay at $50 per stop, over dimensional pay ranging from $75 to $200 based on miles, and bonuses for loads over 64,000 pounds as well as for border crossings into Canada. Alongside these financial benefits, drivers receive substantial perks and support including a significant $6,000 hiring bonus, paid monthly over the first year, and a Paid Time Off package that begins accruing from day one.

The role offers an exciting and supportive setting for drivers who value a balance between work and personal time, with home time scheduled between 14 to 21 days depending on location. Orientation is all expenses paid at luxury hotels in Roseville, MN, and Appling, GA, maintaining the company's commitment to treating their drivers with respect from the very beginning. Weekly pay, comprehensive health benefits including dental, vision, life, and disability insurance, and a 401K plan with company matching further enhance the overall employment package.

Koch Trucking also offers unique lifestyle benefits such as a free iPad with a data package to help drivers stay connected, a pet and rider policy to accommodate life on the road, and access to free drivers lounge amenities that include essentials like soap, shampoo, laundry supplies, and even meals. Their Rolling Strong driver app and 24/7/365 roadside assistance underline their continuous support for drivers. For those seeking a dynamic driving opportunity in a company that values its workforce and provides exceptional training, resources, and pay structures, Koch Trucking’s flatbed division offers a compelling career path.
