Cdl Rigger information

What is a CDL rigger?

CDL Riggers are skilled professionals who operate heavy machinery and vehicles, such as cranes and trucks, to move, lift, and transport large or heavy loads. They hold a Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) and are trained in rigging techniques to ensure loads are secured and moved safely. Their work is essential in construction, manufacturing, and other industries that require the transportation of oversized or heavy equipment. CDL Riggers must follow strict safety protocols and often work as part of a team to coordinate complex lifting and transport operations.

What skills and qualifications are needed to be a CDL rigger?

To thrive as a CDL Rigger, you need a valid Commercial Driver's License (CDL), knowledge of rigging techniques, and experience with heavy equipment operation and load securement. Familiarity with rigging hardware, load charts, and OSHA safety protocols, along with certifications like NCCCO or Rigging and Signalperson credentials, are typically required. Strong problem-solving, teamwork, and communication skills help ensure safe and efficient operations on job sites. These skills and qualifications are vital to prevent accidents, maintain compliance, and ensure successful completion of lifting and transport tasks.

What challenges do CDL riggers face when coordinating heavy equipment moves on job sites?

CDL Riggers often encounter challenges such as navigating tight spaces, ensuring proper load securement, and maintaining constant communication with other crew members to execute safe lifts and transports. The role requires a strong understanding of rigging techniques, safety protocols, and the ability to quickly adapt to changing site conditions. Effective collaboration with crane operators, site supervisors, and other trades is essential to ensure that all equipment moves are completed efficiently and without incident.

What is the difference between Cdl Rigger vs Crane Operator?

Both Cdl Rigger and Crane Operator roles often require CDL licenses and work in construction or industrial environments.

Job description

Heavy Haul Driver | Olinger Heavy Hauling

Move the Unmovable.

At Olinger Heavy Hauling, we don’t just move freight; we move the infrastructure of the future. From massive industrial transformers to the blades of wind turbines, our drivers are the elite pilots of the highway.

We are looking for a Heavy Haul Driver who brings more than just a CDL to the table. We need a precision specialist who thrives on the technical challenge of 13-axle configurations and the responsibility of hauling high-value, over-dimensional cargo. If you’re a veteran of the road who prides yourself on a "zero-incident" reputation, we want you behind the wheel.

The Mission

As an Olinger Driver, you’ll operate top-tier equipment (RGNs, lowboys, and steerable trailers) to deliver the massive components that keep the country running. This isn’t "point A to point B" trucking—it’s a high-stakes coordination of engineering, navigation, and skill.

Your Core Responsibilities

  • Precision Operation: Masterfully maneuver heavy-duty rigs with 6 to 13+ axles through complex routes.
  • Elite Load Securement: Expertly apply chains, binders, and lashing techniques to ensure "bulletproof" securement of oversized equipment.
  • Strategic Navigation: Execute permitted routes with surgical precision, staying clear of weight-restricted bridges and low-clearance obstacles.
  • Command & Control: Lead the convoy by maintaining seamless communication with dispatch, pilot cars, and law enforcement.
  • Total Compliance: Navigate the paperwork as well as the road—managing ELDs, HOS, and specialized overweight permits.

What You Bring to the Rig

  • The Credentials: A valid Class A CDL with a pristine driving record.
  • The Experience: 3–5+ years of Class A experience, with at least 1–2 years specifically in Heavy Haul or Oversized freight.
  • The Gear Knowledge: You’re a pro with Removable Goosenecks (RGN), lowboys, step-decks, and stretch trailers.
  • The Grit: Physical stamina to handle 100-lb chains and binders in whatever weather the road throws at you.
  • The Edge (Preferred): TWIC card or WITPAC certification is a major plus.

Life on the Road

  • Travel: Our projects take us across the map. Expect OTR trips that may keep you out for a week or more at a time.
  • Schedule: Heavy haul doesn't always follow a 9-to-5. Flexibility for weekends or project-specific timelines is essential.
  • Culture: We value safety over speed. At Olinger, we give you the tools and the time to do the job right.

Ready to level up your career? If you have the technical skill and the professional discipline to join the Olinger team, apply today.

Company Description

Since 1962, Olinger Heavy Hauling has been Kansas City’s premier choice for machinery moving, industrial rigging, and specialized heavy hauling. We pride ourselves on a "GET IT DONE" family culture that delivers turn-key solutions for oversized, heavy, and complex industrial projects.

Our fleet is unique—we operate heavy-duty semi-tractors, a wide variety of specialized trailers (ranging up to massive 13-axle setups), forklifts, and rigging cranes. Because our equipment is so specialized, we don’t expect you to know everything on day one. We are looking for someone with solid basic mechanical skills who is eager to learn from the best in the business.
