Regional truck driving jobs

What is a regional truck driver?

Regional truck drivers haul freight within a specific area of the country, meaning you’ll be able to get in plenty of miles while staying close enough to home to get there weekly or more. With Schneider’s nationwide freight base covering every region, you have plenty of flexible driving options to choose from. Explore the wide variety of regional driving jobs Schneider has to offer.
