Fit summary

Day in the role

As a CDL-A drop-and-hook team driver for Western Express based out of the East Tawas / Iosco County area, you and your partner typically run over-the-road freight: pre-trip inspections, swap trailers at customer or terminal yards without live unload, manage HOS, and keep the power unit moving between hooks. Team rotation covers night and day miles; communication with dispatch and safe, on-time trailer exchanges are the core of the shift.
