Types of Trucking Jobs Opportunities

Specialized Truck Drivers

Specialized truck drivers handle sensitive, oversized or unusual loads. Drivers cover long-distance and local routes. They also need extra training to operate their specialized trucks.

Long-Distance Truck Driving Jobs

Long-distance drivers, also called over-the-road (OTR), or long haul drivers, operate heavy trucks. These truck and trailer combination vehicles haul livestock, products, or materials over long distances.

You'll have a layover until the next day. Or, day trips where you will return home the same day. But you may also travel longer distances and be away from home base for a week or longer.

Independent Truckers

Independent truck drivers actually run small businesses and own their own truck. And they account for a large segment of the long-haul trucking industry. Generally speaking, they begin as salaried drivers. They buy a truck and become independent contractors. This allows them to haul freight for one or several companies.

Hazardous Materials Drivers

These types of truck drivers need more extensive training. Usually, training is provided by their employers. Drivers must understand the special characteristics of the load they haul. Additionally, they must be skilled in handling these loads safely. If there are leaking containers, they should be knowledgeable in emergency precautions.

Local Truck Driver Jobs

Unlike long-distance drivers, in local trucking jobs there are no overnight hauls. However, you have more contact with customers and make many stops throughout the day. In general, tasks include customer delivery, route-sales, or pick up and delivery operations. You'll also need selling skills in addition to driving skills for route-sales.
