About This Role
As a flatbed company driver with SME Logistics, you'll transport fabricated steel products from fabrication facilities across Utah, Idaho, Nevada, and Arizona to construction sites throughout the Southwest, then return with back-haul loads to terminals near your base. This dedicated route means you're hauling predictable, consistent freight rather than bouncing between random assignments. You'll earn $0.63 per mile starting out, with increases reaching $0.70 per mile at five years, plus hourly pay ($25-$28 depending on location) for shorter hauls and $50 per tarp for back-haul work. The role suits drivers who value stability and time at home—SME specifically seeks operators living near their Arizona and Utah routes, prioritizing weekly home time and genuine work-life balance. You'll operate newer equipment (2021-2025 models), enjoy eight paid holidays and PTO, and access comprehensive benefits including medical, dental, vision, and a 401(k) match. This position rewards safe, reliable drivers with 1-2 years of flatbed experience who are willing to secure freight by hand and stay flexible when occasional loads extend beyond the core route.
