Hiring CDL-A OTR Drivers near Apex, NC
Apex sits on the southwest side of the Triangle where US-1 and US-64 feed into I-40, a fast-growing suburb full of drivers who want steady freight close to home. The Triangle's pharmaceutical and tech distribution keeps dry vans moving, and MigWay runs it as an asset-based carrier out of Pineville, NC, about 145 miles southwest - company trucks, company drivers, never brokered.
You'll connect to I-40 and run dry van OTR across the East Coast, Northeast, Southwest and parts of the Midwest. It's honest OTR - multi-day runs with predictable home time - paying 65 CPM with bonuses on all miles in a late-model automatic with 24/7 in-house dispatch.

You never have to worry about scale house inspections. 24/7 support is top level; saved my butt on a late-night receiver delay when nobody else was awake.
