Wilken Trucking is hiring CDL-A OTR Truck Drivers to join our team. We’re a smaller, personable company that values our drivers and understands that life doesn’t always fit neatly into a set schedule.

While we have a structured home-time policy to keep schedules consistent, we also understand that drivers have families, appointments, and responsibilities outside of the truck. As a smaller company, we're able to take a more personal approach and work directly with drivers to coordinate additional home time when needed, even when it falls outside the standard schedule.

-
Florida
