Owners & L2P

We’ve designed our FLEXTIME Driving Program to fit the lifestyles of older, experienced drivers who want to cycle between periods of work and leisure. FLEXTIME drivers can spend less time on the road during the year and more time with family — on favorite hobbies — finishing special projects — or just relaxing. To put it another way, do whatever YOU want. Drive 3 months or more in one of our Lone Star company trucks. (Leave the bookkeeping and administrative headaches to us.) Then take off up to 6 months.

• OTR company drivers who’ve been with Lone Star for more than one year average a Total CPM of $1.71, including base CPM plus special incentives like those listed below.
• $6,000 Sign-On Bonus
• Both empty AND loaded miles paid
• Guaranteed Pay: We guarantee Lone Star drivers a weekly minimum when you’re available for dispatch – even if we don’t have a load for you
• Stop off pay: $25 for any stop you make between the original pickup and final delivery
• Tarp pay: $50 (around 25% of our loads are tarped)
• Toll tags and CAT scale pass
• Quarterly fuel bonus program
• $1,500 for completing our 5-day orientation program, plus $1,050 for finishing any required securement training. (You’re paid on Friday of the following week.) We cover all expenses for your travel and stay, too!
• Eligibility for Driver Referral Bonuses

As part of the FLEXTIME Driving Program, we also offer you the opportunity to sign up for our affordable group insurance plans, including a free health insurance option. (Coverage begins the 1st of the month following 30 days of employment and continues while you’re actively working. Ask for details.) After working a total of 6 months, top off your nest egg through participation in our 401(k) retirement program, too. We offer a generous company match as well as immediate vesting.
