Barr-Nunn Transportation is offering its team drivers higher pay and more options for home time.
For team drivers living in the Northeastern U.S., Ohio and some of Indiana and Kentucky, there are now two options for home time. Drivers can be home weekly and earn a maximum starting pay rate of 82 cents per practical mile or team drivers can be home every other weekend for three days and earn a maximum starting team pay rate of 71 cents per practical mile.
Barr-Nunn Transportation also offers a Team OTR -18 North fleet for those drivers living in West Virginia, Detroit, along with parts of Indiana, Wisconsin, and Iowa. These drivers are home every 18 days for 4 full days and can earn a top team starting rate of 72 cents per practical mile.
In addition to higher starting rates, all team company drivers can receive CSA Safety Bonuses of $825 or $650 every 90 days plus paid time off along with the money. Over the road team company drivers will generally earn over two weeks each of PTO in their first year, according to Barr-Nunn, and can start receiving PTO after 30 days.
Other benefits for Barr-Nunn team drivers include Blue Cross Blue Shield Insurance, 401(k) matching program, 2019-2020 Freightliner Cascadia Evolution Series trucks and paid life insurance.
