Driving jobs near me - 2026 guide
The US trucking industry is short roughly 80,000 drivers right now. That number is expected to hit 160,000 by 2030. So if you have a CDL, you're in a strong position. Carriers are paying sign-on bonuses, guaranteeing weekly minimums, and offering home-time deals that didn't exist 5 years ago.
CDL Class A OTR drivers average $70,000 to $95,000 a year. Tanker and hazmat specialists with the right endorsements regularly clear $100,000. Owner-operators on the right freight lanes can earn $150,000 to $180,000 after expenses.
Driving jobs that don't require a CDL
You don't need a commercial licence to get started in driving. Amazon Logistics, FedEx, UPS, and USPS all hire package delivery drivers with a standard licence. Pay runs $18 to $28 per hour with full benefits. DoorDash, Instacart, and Amazon Flex are fully flexible gig options that let you start the same week you apply.
How to get a CDL near you
3 main routes: a private truck driving school (4-8 weeks, costs $3,000 to $7,000), a community college CDL programme (cheaper, slower), or a company-sponsored CDL programme where the carrier pays for your training in exchange for a 12-month work commitment. Swift, Werner, and CRST all run sponsored programmes. You start earning while you train.
To get your CDL learner permit, visit your state DMV, pass the written knowledge test, and then practise in a commercial vehicle before the skills test. The whole process from zero to licensed typically takes 6 to 8 weeks.
