About the Company
Ameri-Co Carriers is a leading truckload carrier and a wholly owned subsidiary of Minerals Technologies Inc., headquartered in Scottsbluff, NE. We operate as a 100% Owner Operator fleet, distinguishing ourselves by maintaining a small company atmosphere that prioritizes the success of our partners. We pride ourselves on our reputation for safety and reliability, recognizing that our Owner Operators are the backbone of our operations.
About the Role
Partnering with Ameri-Co is designed to be more than just a job; it is a pathway to the most successful driving days possible. We offer a diverse range of opportunities for Regional and Over-The-Road (OTR) Owner Operators, allowing you to choose routes that fit your lifestyle. Our network covers short and long runs spanning East to West, North to South, and the Midwest regions.
We strive to dispatch trucks that meet your comfort level while providing the specific amount of weekly miles you request. Whether you prefer Regional routes with home time every weekend or Long Haul opportunities with an average of 8-10 days out (or longer, at your choice), we offer flexible schedules with no forced dispatch. Our freight is consistent, and our lanes are designed to be desirable, ensuring steady work year-round for our partners.
Our Culture and Values
Ameri-Co believes in maintaining a close-knit community where partners are appreciated every single day. We have a high retention rate, with several drivers having been with us for more than 30 years. Our top two Owner Operators have surpassed 4 million miles with the company, illustrating the endless possibilities for growth and longevity within our fleet. We are a financially sound company dedicated to providing the best working conditions and a profitable compensation program.
Hiring Process
To join our fleet, candidates must own a semitruck and be willing to run under Ameri-Co authority. We look for drivers who are at least 23 years old with at least two full years of verifiable interstate driving in the past three years. Your truck must be EROD compatible (2000 build date or newer), and experience must match the equipment type you will be operating. If operating flatbeds, experience in cargo securement and tarping is required.
Equal Opportunity
Ameri-Co Carriers is committed to building a diverse and inclusive workforce. We consider qualified applicants regardless of background, focusing on safety, reliability, and the unique value each Owner Operator brings to our team.
