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.
