Regional Truck Driving Jobs

Regional trucking jobs are appealing to those interested in the option of more regular home time. Regional routes are by definition run in specific regions of the country such as the Midwest, Southeast, Southwest, etc. As a result, regional drivers are typically never more than a day of driving away from home. This helps to arrange for drivers to spend time at home on a more frequent basis. A typical regional route keeps a driver out on the road between 7- 10 days at a time although there are many definitions of regional and this varies from company to company.

Some regional drivers travel within certain regions inside a state. Others drive from state to state but keep it within a section of the nation, such as the midwest. A lot of companies allow you to select the region you would like to drive. Regional trucking routes are more desirable to individuals who are married/in a relationship, have children, have a home, etc. While they don’t generally have the driver home nightly, as with local trucking jobs, the home time is acceptable and the jobs are often more readily available.
