Job Description
Forward is a leading transportation company that specializes in providing dedicated over-the-road (OTR) trucking services across multiple terminal locations. With a reputation for reliability and a commitment to driver satisfaction, Forward is an established player in the logistics and freight hauling industry. The company is known for offering steady freight opportunities, predictable schedules, and a driver-focused work environment that prioritizes safety, earnings, and work-life balance. Forward’s fleet consists of modern, well-equipped trucks including 2023 or newer Freightliners that come with amenities such as auxiliary power units (APUs), inverters, and refrigerators, ensuring that drivers can enjoy a comfortable and efficient driving experience.
Forward is actively hiring Team CDL-A Company Drivers for OTR dedicated lanes. This role is specifically designed for teams who want consistent miles, strong pay, and predictable home time. Drivers can expect weekly home time while maintaining high mileage, with typical miles ranging from 4,700 to 6,000 miles per week. The dedicated routes involve primarily terminal-to-terminal or drop hook freight, meaning drivers will have established, dependable routes and schedules to plan around. These factors combine to make the position ideal for team drivers seeking a balance between maximizing earnings and maintaining a consistent home life without the unpredictability commonly associated with long-haul trucking.
As a Forward Team CDL-A Company Driver, you will enjoy a recently increased per-mile pay rate of $0.78, designed to reward your hard work and commitment to safety and reliability. The expected annual earnings range between $95,000 and $120,000, providing a competitive income for drivers dedicated to maintaining a strong presence on the road. The company's focus on dedicated freight lanes reduces waiting times and uncertainties, allowing teams to keep their wheels turning efficiently and improve overall productivity.
Safety is a top priority at Forward, reflected by their comprehensive safety bonus program and proactive approach to driver well-being. The employment package also includes affordable medical, dental, and vision insurance options, with costs as low as $9 per week for medical, $0 for dental, and $1 for vision coverage. Additionally, Forward offers flexible spending accounts (FSAs) and health savings accounts (HSAs) for medical benefit participants, enabling drivers to manage their healthcare dollars tax efficiently.
Forward provides its drivers with paid time off to rest and refresh, supporting a healthy work-life balance. Alongside this, an employer-matched 401(k) retirement program helps drivers plan for their financial future. Team drivers can also participate in an employee stock purchase program, allowing them to become stakeholders in the company and benefit from its success. The company's commitment to driver welfare and competitive compensation makes it one of the best OTR company driver packages in the trucking industry.
This position requires that team drivers hold a valid Class A CDL and have at least 12 months of verifiable CDL-A tractor-trailer experience within the past three years. Drivers must be at least 23 years old to apply and are required to obtain a Hazmat endorsement within the first 120 days of hire, reflecting the nature of the freight handled. Overall, this opportunity is tailored for dedicated, safety-conscious team drivers who want high mileage, predictable schedules, and the advantage of a respected employer offering comprehensive benefits and support.
Join Forward to take advantage of one of the best team driving opportunities available in the trucking industry today. Experience the benefits of predictable routes, consistent miles, competitive pay, and comprehensive benefits—all designed with drivers in mind to help you move forward in your career and life.
