The full package
Benefits Built for the Long Haul
We've been at this since 1985. The equipment is late-model, the freight is no-touch,
and the benefits are the kind you keep long after you go home.
Health premiums covered
The company pays 80% of employee and 70% of family health premiums — plus dental, vision and $10,000 of company-paid life & AD&D.
$13,000 sign-on bonus
On regional dry van roles, paid weekly over 52 weeks — plus a weekly bonus worth up to an additional 7.5 cpm.
Bring your co-pilot
Pet policy from day 1 and a passenger policy too — the road is a lot better with your best friend riding along.
Paid every Friday
Weekly pay with a Tuesday 5 pm cutoff. Paid orientation at $250 with travel arranged for you.
Trucks you'd actually want
Late-model Internationals and Peterbilts with APUs, inverters, microwaves, refrigerators and a brand-new memory foam mattress.
Time off that's real

Full protection
Short- and long-term disability on top of health, dental
and vision coverage.
Hours that pay extra
Hourly local roles earn overtime after 40 hours; salaried and regional roles pay straight and predictable.
Four-Legged Co-Pilots Welcome
Trained pets ride with you from day one on over-the-road runs — and occasional human passengers are covered too. The road is long enough to share.

Why drivers stay
A Small Company Where
You're Known
Since 1985, J-Mar has run on good communication and mutual respect.
When problems pop up, we work hand in hand with drivers to find solutions
and keep moving forward.
Small by design — leadership knows every driver by name, and you can
reach them directly when something comes up.Ample no-touch dry van freight means consistent miles, and you largely
set your own pace: no designated drive times or fuel stops.2025 driver turnover was under 25% — average tenure is five years, and
our longest drivers have been here 25+.
"They get all the information the driver needs and are there if
problems come up."
— Tim A., J-Mar driver
