Averitt CDL-A Truck Drivers, Delivering Entertainment
Our unique and exciting On Tour Logistics (OTL) division is about more than bumping a dock; it’s about hard work and dedication, finding adventure and making lasting relationships. It’s a family.
Production and Event Drivers support concert tours, sporting events and just about everything entertainment related. And we’re looking for drivers who enjoy meeting new people and can commit to multi-week runs for these exciting CDL-A opportunities. Get top pay, drive the best equipment, and deliver entertainment when you join the Production and Event team.
Production: Production runs are one-time moves that can be one-ways or roundtrips and could include layovers. Drivers get their regional mileage rate of pay, plus stops and other accessorial pay.
Tours: Tours average 10 days to 10 months. Drivers on tours are typically placed on a weekly salary that is pro-rated on partial weeks.
Regional: When the entertainment needs slow down, you don’t! Drivers make competitive mileage pay by moving regional freight when they are not running production or on tours!
