What Drivers Say About Driving for MigWay
MigWay hires CDL-A OTR drivers in the Winston-Salem, NC area and across North Carolina. Here's what one of our drivers had to say:
“Great hometime balance! They respect your home time and never try to force loads when you're supposed to break. The owners and safety guys actually know your name when you walk through the door. The pay is consistently top-tier and always hits direct deposit like clockwork every Friday morning. As one of their top performers, I was handed the keys to a brand new 2027 Mack truck—they really reward quality drivers! If you do your job right, they take care of you 100%.”
