True Blue currently has a full-time CDL-A company-driver opening and an owner-operator lease-on program for drivers with their own tractor.
Apply for the company-driver opening if you have at least 1 year of verifiable tractor-trailer experience, an MVR score of zero, and can run the available 70-hour clock before taking the 34-hour reset at home. Hazmat is preferred, not mandatory. Apply to the lease-on program if you own your tractor and want dispatch and back-office support.

Start with the home-time pattern
The full-time company-driver opening runs the available 70-hour clock, then takes the 34-hour reset at home. It is not a home-daily job.
Morning starts are common, but appointment times depend on the load, and weekend work is part of the schedule.
Match the work to what you already have
The company-driver opening requires a valid CDL-A, at least 1 year of verifiable tractor-trailer experience, an MVR score of zero, Clearinghouse eligibility, and federal English proficiency. Hazmat is preferred, not mandatory.
The lease-on program needs your own roadworthy tractor and a qualified operating history. A hazmat endorsement is not required, and holding one adds placarded, non-bulk hazmat freight.
Choose the pay model you understand
Non-hazmat company-driver work pays a $0.50 base plus up to a $0.20 weekly performance bonus, for up to $0.70 per mile. Hazmat-load miles pay $0.75 per mile.
Expected weekly mileage is 2,000-2,500 miles. The resulting gross ranges are $1,400-$1,750 at the full non-hazmat performance rate and $1,500-$1,875 if all miles are hazmat-load miles; miles, bonus, and gross pay are not guaranteed.
The lease-on program is a contractor arrangement, so recruiting covers the freight and the pay breakdown by phone rather than listing a rate.
Use the details before applying
Read the job page for the opening you want, then apply for the one that fits your CDL history, MVR, and how much you want to be out.
Drivers based in Reno, Sparks, Carson City, and northern Nevada should mention their availability and their endorsement on the first call. Owner-operators should have their truck, trailer, and city ready, because recruiting starts there.
Driver questions
What is the company-driver home-time pattern?
Drivers run the available 70-hour clock, then take the 34-hour reset at home. This is not a home-daily role, and load timing determines the exact return schedule.
Is True Blue currently hiring owner-operators?
Yes. The Owner-Operator Lease-On Program is open to drivers who own their tractor, and no hazmat endorsement is required to apply. It is a lease-on arrangement rather than a company-driver seat, and recruiting covers the freight and the pay breakdown by phone.
Can recruiting help me decide whether this lane fits?
Yes. Send the 60-second apply form, or call or text recruiting at 240-TRU-BLUE (240-878-2583), then ask whether the full-time company-driver job or lease-on program matches your experience, schedule, and equipment.
Send the quick apply form and ask which current Reno lane best fits your schedule, CDL class, and freight experience.
