Apply for this job
OTR trucking involves long-haul routes that cross multiple states, often keeping drivers on the road for two to three weeks at a time before returning home. These positions are ideal for drivers who enjoy travel and independence, and they typically offer the highest pay in the industry. OTR drivers are the backbone of America's freight system, moving goods coast to coast on tight schedules.
A typical day as an OTR tanker driver starts with a detailed inspection of your tank, valves, hoses, and safety equipment. You arrive at a loading terminal, connect your hoses, and oversee the loading process, ensuring the correct product goes into the correct compartment. Driving a tanker requires smooth acceleration, braking, and cornering to manage the liquid surge. After delivering your load and completing paperwork, you clean the tank if needed and head to your next pickup.

About Tanker Trucks
Tanker trucks transport liquid or gaseous cargo such as fuel, chemicals, milk, and water. Drivers typically need a Tanker (N) endorsement on their CDL, and many tanker loads also require a Hazmat (H) endorsement. The specialized nature of tanker hauling means drivers earn above-average pay, though the role demands extra caution due to the shifting weight of liquid cargo.
This position pays $98,800 - $114,400/yr. Actual pay may vary based on experience, endorsements, and miles driven.
What CDL class do I need for this job?
This position requires a CDL Class A license. Class A allows you to operate combination vehicles over 26,001 lbs GVWR.
