Class A CDL Owner Operator

About the Team

UACL Logistics is a leader in the transportation and logistics industry, dedicated to empowering owner operators with the tools, resources, and support needed to grow their business. With a strong national network, advanced technology platforms, and comprehensive administrative and operations support, we help drivers stay efficient, profitable, and focused on what they do best—delivering freight safely and on time.

About the Role

We are seeking experienced CDL-A Owner Operator Drivers across the United States to join our network as independent contractors. This role is ideal for business-minded drivers seeking higher earnings potential and the flexibility of running their own operation. As a partner within our network, you will have access to a robust agent base, consistent freight opportunities, and top-tier operational support.

You will operate a commercial vehicle in accordance with DOT regulations, planning routes to minimize empty miles and maximize fuel efficiency. The position requires maintaining regular communication with UACL agents for load alerts and scheduling, ensuring freight is properly handled, and representing UACL with professionalism at pickup and delivery locations. You will utilize our technology tools for load management and documentation while participating in optional training programs to enhance operational efficiency.

Compensation & Benefits

Our compensation structure is designed to maximize your earnings potential. In the Van Division, drivers renting a van trailer from UACL receive 67% of linehaul pay, with an option to switch to a weekly flat trailer rental rate to increase earnings to 75% of linehaul. Flatbed Division drivers receive 75% of linehaul, with a weekly flat rate trailer rental available for those without their own equipment.

Actual pay-per-mile and weekly gross earnings vary based on customers, freight lanes, and driver preference (regional, OTR, dedicated, etc.). We also offer a $5,000 sign-on bonus paid to the truck.

UACL offers extensive support to help you succeed, including:

• Access to relationships with 300+ freight agents nationwide
• 24/7 operations and road service support
• The U-Save Driver Discount Program, offering savings on hotels, cell phone plans, fuel, maintenance, and retail
