Job Description

Apex Bulk Commodities is a family-run company dedicated to supporting and valuing its drivers above all else. Based in Bakersfield, California, this company focuses on bulk commodity transportation, ensuring that goods are delivered efficiently and safely across regional routes. The company’s commitment to its employees is evident in the respect they show and the benefits they provide, making Apex Bulk Commodities a desirable workplace for professional truck drivers. With a reputation built on reliability and driver satisfaction, they strive to maintain a workplace environment that fosters growth, safety, and work-life balance.\n\nThey are currently seeking a solo Class A driver for regional runs operating out of Bakersfield. This is a full-time opportunity involving routes primarily between Bakersfield and Tracy. The role is designed for drivers who prefer solo driving without team assignments. Drivers can expect to be home for their mandatory 34-hour reset and will likely be at home every other night, providing an excellent work-life balance rarely found in the trucking industry. The vehicle assigned will be a sleeper truck, allowing comfortable overnight rest during the route. The schedule is rotating and includes weekend work to accommodate freight demands and maintain operational efficiency. The ideal candidate will have a clean driving record with at least six months of verifiable Class A driving experience. While pneumatic experience is considered a plus, it is not mandatory as training will be provided. An additional requirement is possession of doubles, triples, and tanker endorsements (T and N), which are necessary for handling the bulk commodities and tankers involved in these routes.\n\nCompensation for this position starts at $22 per hour, reflecting the company’s appreciation for their drivers’ expertise and commitment. Beyond competitive pay, Apex Bulk Commodities offers a comprehensive benefits package that includes paid vacation and paid time off (PTO), health benefits such as medical, dental, and vision insurance, and 401(k) retirement plans. Safety is a top priority, and drivers are eligible for quarterly safety bonuses, incentivizing safe driving practices. The company also supports new hires with paid orientation, training, safety equipment, and a referral program to grow their family-oriented workforce. As an established and respected player in the bulk commodity transport sector, Apex Bulk Commodities offers a solid career path for drivers looking for stability, respect, and a balanced lifestyle.
