CDL Class A Driver

CDL Class A Driver

Springfield, IL 62701 $1,315 to $1,515 / Week Avg | Drop & Hook | No NYC or Jersey | Real Home Time

Rouse Trucking is hiring experienced CDL-A regional drivers. If you're looking for a route that offers steady freight, real home time, and equipment you can count on, this is for you.

We don't overpromise - we deliver consistent miles, no-touch freight, and a support system that respects your time on and off the road.

What You'll Earn

Our regional drivers earn $1,315 to $1,515 per week. You'll also earn accessorial pay, putting more money in your pocket every mile. Additional compensation includes detention pay, layover pay, and holiday pay. We prioritize keeping you moving and making sure every hour counts.

Home Time That Works for You

You'll be out 7-9 days and earn 1 full day off for every 7 out - but here's the difference : your time off doesn't start when you pull into the driveway. If you get home Tuesday morning, your clock starts Wednesday. That means you actually get the time you've earned. You can also choose to take your home time anywhere you run, not just at your home address. Whether you want to be near family, unwind somewhere quiet, or plan around personal needs, we give you the flexibility to do it your way.

No NYC. No Jersey. Minimal Unload.

We keep you out of NYC, New Jersey, and other high-pressure zones. This job is built around efficiency and simplicity. 85-90% of our freight is drop and hook, keeping your wheels turning and your clock productive. For the 10% of loads that require unloading, we provide you with an electric floor jack - and yes, you're paid for the work. No surprises, no unpaid labor, and no wasted time.

Reliable Equipment, Serviced Regularly

You'll be behind the wheel of a Kenworth T680 automatic, built for long days and real rest. Each truck comes equipped with a Smart Idle system, a 1500-watt inverter, double bunks with new mattresses, and a bunk heater for cold nights. Our trucks are serviced every 6 months, helping you avoid downtime and keep your income consistent. When your equipment works, you do too - and we don't take shortcuts on that.

Benefits, Terminals, and Orientation

We offer United Healthcare after 60 days, and a 401(k) with a Fidelity match after 90 days. Orientation is just 3 days and we cover travel via rental car or Greyhound, with hotel and Uber included when needed.

The Bottom Line

You're a professional. You've put in the miles. You've handled the loads, met the deadlines, and stayed ready for what's next. You deserve a company that respects that - one that values your time, pays you fairly, and keeps your rig in top shape. This isn't just another run. It's a regional job built for drivers who want consistency, respect, and long-term reliability. If that sounds like your lane, let's get you rolling.
