About This Role
As a regional CDL A driver with Updike Distribution Logistics, you'll run consistent lanes throughout Arizona, Southern California, Northern California, Nevada, and Utah—meaning predictable routes and regular home time without the grind of long-haul trucking. Your days involve hauling freight across the Southwest with the security of knowing what to expect, plus you'll earn from day one with a straightforward pay structure starting at 54 cents per mile plus a 5.5-cent bonus opportunity, layover pay, detention pay, and extra compensation for additional stops. This role rewards both safety and productivity through monthly bonuses that can add up significantly. You'll find multiple terminals throughout the region for support, and the company genuinely backs drivers with paid orientation, benefits after 90 days (including health insurance and 401k matching), and a $2,500 retention bonus after six months. The ideal fit is a driver who values reliability and fair compensation over endless miles—someone who appreciates knowing their route, getting home regularly, and working for a carrier that actually respects their time and effort.
