Solo Drivers

Why do so many solo drivers choose to join our U.S. Xpress family? Because you’ll never feel like you're driving solo. Every day, you’ll have a team of people by your side, people who are committed to giving you the consistent miles you need to make a good living. Plus, they’re ready to help solve any day-to-day problem you may encounter, including getting you home when you need it.

Welcoming Environment

We’re not only one of the largest trucking companies around, we’re also proud to still be a family-owned business. So we have the size to offer you plenty of opportunity, and the heart to respect all of the drivers who make up our culturally diverse workplace. In addition, if you’re a female driver, you’ll find no one makes you feel more welcome. Over 1,000 women drivers call U.S. Xpress home. That’s more than three times the industry average, so you know we’re doing something right!

Great Pay

Solos earn up to 39.5 CPM—that’s one of the best rates in the industry. More importantly, you can count on us to deliver the miles you need to make that CPM add up fast!
