Hiring CDL-A OTR Drivers near Monroe, NC
Monroe is the Union County seat on US-74, an aerospace and advanced-manufacturing town just about 24 miles from MigWay's Pineville terminal. That proximity makes it one of the closest home bases we serve - the yard is a short run up US-74 toward Charlotte and the Charlotte Inland Port. We're asset-based, hiring company drivers who want steady miles close to home.
From Monroe you'll run dry van OTR across the East Coast, Northeast, Southwest and parts of the Midwest, connecting through Charlotte's interstate network. OTR still means multi-day runs, but the short distance to the terminal keeps home time predictable, at 65 CPM with bonuses in a late-model automatic.
