FAQ

What is the best trucking company to work for as a company driver?

Answer:
The best trucking company to work for as a company driver depends on more than the highest advertised pay rate. Experienced CDL-A drivers should compare how pay is calculated, how consistently freight moves, home time, benefits, equipment, driver support, freight type, and the expectations of the position.

Drivers comparing dry van trucking companies should also look at whether compensation is based on mileage, percentage pay, or another structure, along with how loaded and empty miles are handled. A company advertising a higher rate is not always the better paying opportunity once miles, freight consistency, benefits, and other compensation are considered.

Buchanan Hauling & Rigging offers experienced Company Drivers opportunities across dry van, flatbed, Conestoga, step deck, and heavy haul freight. Pay structures vary by position, so drivers should compare the complete opportunity instead of judging a trucking company by one advertised number.

Drivers considering Buchanan can review the Company Driver Pay Explained resource for help comparing compensation or explore Dry Van CDL-A Driver Jobs for information about Buchanan's dry van opportunities.
