As an independent contractor with TransAm Trucking, you'll enjoy:

  • 70% of Linehaul Revenue: Maximize your business' earning potential with a percentage-based pay structure.*

If you don't have your own equipment, TransAm partners with ONE Leasing—which offers a diverse range of lease options, including a new 3-month lease option for drivers seeking a lower-commitment path to getting their business started or looking to scale their business at a comfortable pace.**
  • Optional Benefits Access: Independent Contractors may have access to optional benefit offerings (such as dental, vision, accident, disability, and more) through a third-party partner. These benefits are not provided by TransAm Trucking and participation is completely optional.

**ONE Leasing, a separate and distinct company from TransAm Trucking, offers equipment for lease to its clients. Contact ONE Leasing directly for more details and to see if this is right for your business. Leasing equipment through ONE Leasing is strictly optional for independent contractors.
