Open deck is a skill
Anybody can pull a box. Flatbed is different work — you are responsible for the load staying on the trailer, and that responsibility does not come off when the weather does. Chains, straps, edge protection, tarps in February.
If that is not the job you want, we run van lanes and there is no shame in taking one. If it is, this is a lane where the skill is worth money: up to seventy-five cents a mile, fourteen hundred to two thousand a week, and three thousand dollars in sign-on money.
Where you run
Memphis and Covington in Tennessee. Wynne in Arkansas. Tunica in Mississippi. Shreveport in Louisiana. And a real footprint in east Texas — Houston, Sulphur Springs, Texarkana, Lufkin and Nacogdoches.
That list is the lane. If you live in one of those places, this is the seat that was built for where you already are.
The truck
An assigned 2024 or 2025 Peterbilt 579, a 2027 Volvo VNL, or a 2027 Freightliner Cascadia. It is yours and it stays yours. We do not slip-seat.
What comes with it
Full medical through UnitedHealthcare, plus dental, vision, life and AD&D. Short-term and long-term disability, company paid. A 401(k) with a company match. Paid vacation. A pet policy and a rider policy.
What comes with the seat
The same in every lane. If something differs by lane, it is on that lane's page, not buried here.
- Assigned trucks
- You get a truck and it stays yours. No slip-seating, no walking out to a different cab every week.
- Medical, dental and vision
- Full medical through UnitedHealthcare, plus dental, vision, life and AD&D.
- Disability, company paid
- Short-term and long-term disability, both paid by Empire. Not offered — paid.
- 401(k) with a company match
- Retirement plan with an employer match.
- Vacation pay
- Paid vacation.
- Pets and riders
- A pet policy and a rider policy, because a truck you live in should hold whoever lives in it with you.
Tell us who you are
Most carrier application forms ask for your Social Security number, ten years of address history and three references before anybody has told you what the job pays or whether they hire in your county. That is backwards. It is a lot of a driver's evening spent on a job they may not want.
So this one is nine questions, and none of them are your Social Security number. A recruiter calls you, tells you what is actually open near you, and answers whatever you ask. If it sounds like a fit, the full DOT application comes after that conversation — and by then you will know what you are filling it out for.
