Arizona is a major logistics hub connecting California ports to the rest of the country. Cross-border freight with Mexico adds demand.
The average truck driver salary in Arizona ranges from $50,000 - $72,000 per year. Drivers with endorsements such as Hazmat (H) or Tanker (N) can earn significantly more. Experience level, CDL class, and type of freight all factor into compensation. For a detailed national breakdown, see our Truck Driver Salary Guide and our data-driven 2026 CDL Driver Pay Report.
Arizona MVD handles CDL issuance. The state has reciprocity agreements with Mexico for cross-border freight.
Arizona offers CDL skills testing at MVD offices and authorized third-party locations throughout the state.
