Go From Virtual Truck Driving to a Real-Life Career at Swift

Competitive Pay & Bonuses
Want to fuel your pride and your paycheck? Start a truck driving career at Swift Transportation. You can achieve career independence and financial security as a driver. At Swift, the harder you run, the higher earning potential you have. Each truck driver's salary will depend on the position and experience.
Drivers can earn even more through our many bonus and reward programs. A Monthly Performance Bonus is given to all OTR drivers based on fuel, safety and productivity. Consecutive high performance in these categories earns drivers additional bonuses and a pathway to higher driver rankings like Platinum and Diamond Driver. Drivers also earn a bonus for every million miles they complete at Swift.

Work/Life Balance & Hometime
We recognize that over-the-road drivers can sometimes spend several weeks on the road at a time. Being away from home for long periods of time is a sacrifice all over-the-road truck drivers make. Spending time with your loved ones is just as important as providing for them financially. Which means a solid work/life balance is key!
Swift has a team dedicated to supporting drivers and their home time needs. The Home Time team focuses on fulfilling drivers’ home time requests. We prioritize getting drivers to the most important destination with flexible schedules that support your family's busy and changing lifestyle. Swift makes sure that you have the ability to balance your work and your home life effectively.

Dedicated, Local, and Regional Routes
As an experienced driver, you can choose between traveling the country or staying close to home. That’s why we offer hundreds of dedicated opportunities all over the nation. These routes typically involve exclusively delivering freight for a specified customer.
Dedicated drivers may stay within their state or region, which can mean daily or weekly hometime. Dedicated routes have limited availability, may be subject to unique hiring requirements based on customer requests, and vary on pay based on specific account.
