Dock-to-Driver Program

Want to earn your CDL while working? Our Dock-to-Driver Program allows associates to get paid while learning the skills needed to become a professional CDL-A driver. Here’s how it works:

  • Start as a dock associate.

This program gives you a solid foundation in freight handling while preparing you for a rewarding driving career.
