To thrive as a Heavy Haul driver, you need a valid commercial driver’s license (CDL), knowledge of oversized load regulations, and experience with hauling heavy or specialized freight. Familiarity with load securement tools, route planning software, and permits for oversized loads is typically required. Exceptional attention to detail, problem-solving skills, and strong communication help drivers navigate complex routes and coordinate with escort teams. These skills are crucial for ensuring safety, legal compliance, and the efficient delivery of oversized cargo.

Heavy Haul drivers often encounter challenges such as navigating routes with oversized or overweight loads, adhering to strict permitting regulations, and coordinating with escort vehicles.

Many companies provide specialized training and support systems to help drivers manage these complexities and ensure safety and compliance.

What are heavy haul jobs?

Heavy haul jobs involve the transportation of oversized or overweight loads that exceed the standard legal limits for road travel. These jobs require specialized equipment, such as heavy-duty trailers and trucks, and often need special permits, route planning, and sometimes escort vehicles to ensure safe and legal transport. Heavy haul professionals must have expertise in securing large loads, adhering to safety regulations, and navigating complex logistics. Industries such as construction, manufacturing, and energy frequently rely on heavy haul services to move machinery, building materials, or large equipment. This field demands skilled drivers and logistics coordinators due to the challenges and regulations involved.

Both roles demand specific certifications and adherence to safety regulations, with Heavy Haul often involving more complex logistics and equipment.

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.
