Job Description
Riverside Transport is a reputable and driver-focused trucking company that places a strong emphasis on building a family-like environment for its employees. As a company, Riverside Transport prioritizes consistency, open communication, and respect, fostering long-term relationships with its drivers who seek steady pay, reliable home time, and a company culture that genuinely puts people first. The organization offers flexible career options supported by a dependable freight network and a driver-first culture designed to last. This approach not only promotes job satisfaction but also helps drivers maintain a healthy work-life balance while growing their careers with a trusted company.
The CDL-A Truck Driver role at Riverside Transport offers a highly competitive pay structure, with earnings up to $93,600 per year. Drivers benefit from a clear pay range that starts at $0.54 and goes up to $0.70 per mile, depending on experience and performance. Additionally, the company provides extra pay opportunities, including up to $0.15 per mile in per diem (up to $440 per week) plus a $0.02 per mile fuel and safety incentive, boosting the driver’s total take-home pay significantly. This reliable income structure ensures drivers can count on their earnings while enjoying predictable time off, typically running 7 to 10 days out before returning home for meaningful rest periods.
Riverside Transport’s freight model is designed for ease and efficiency, offering 100% no-touch dry van freight to minimize physical strain and maximize driving time. Approximately 60% of the routes involve drop and hook operations, which helps streamline deliveries and reduce waiting times. Drivers are also compensated with $20 stop pay (excluding the first and last delivery) to reward their time during stops. To encourage new talent, Riverside Transport offers a $1,500 sign-on bonus alongside $500 paid orientation, making it easier for new drivers to start strong and feel welcomed.
The benefits package reflects the company’s commitment to supporting its drivers beyond just pay. It includes full medical, dental, and vision insurance, ensuring comprehensive healthcare coverage for drivers and their families. The fleet consists of modern, reliable equipment with trucks from model years 2022 to 2026, providing drivers with a comfortable and safe driving experience. In addition to these benefits, the company offers an uncapped referral program where drivers can earn up to $4,500 for each successful referral, further incentivizing team building and growth.
Riverside Transport champions a high level of support for its drivers, featuring award-winning shippers and high volumes of contracted freight that ensure steady work and pay. Drivers also benefit from paid miles both empty and loaded while on duty, which enhances their overall compensation. Communication is a priority, with fewer drivers per dispatcher to foster better relationships and responsiveness. The company actively promotes an inclusive hiring process with no application deadline, welcoming qualified candidates to apply at any time.
This position requires a valid Class A CDL and a minimum age of 22 years. Company drivers must have at least one year of recent over-the-road (OTR) experience, while lease drivers need six months of recent OTR experience. Additionally, candidates must have a clean record with no participation in substance abuse programs within the last 10 years. Overall, the CDL-A Truck Driver role at Riverside Transport presents a rewarding opportunity with strong pay, excellent benefits, and a supportive work culture that values its drivers as family members.
