Owner-Operator Truck Driver

About the job

LVA Logistics Inc is an American-owned and operated, licensed, asset-based carrier out of Hazel Crest, Illinois — USDOT 3529531, MC 1174530. If you own or lease-purchase a truck and want steady flatbed and step deck freight without running your own authority, we lease you onto ours.

You keep your equipment and your independence. We handle the freight, the dispatch and the authority.

What you will be doing

• Running open-deck freight under our operating authority across the 48 contiguous states.
• Securing and tarping your own loads to FMCSA standards.
• Working with one dispatcher who plans freight around your truck and your schedule.
• Maintaining your own equipment and keeping it inspection-ready.

What you need

• Your own semi tractor, owned or lease-purchased, that meets DOT and company safety inspection standards.
• Valid Class A commercial driver's license.
• Current insurance on your equipment.
• 21 years or older.
• Acceptable motor vehicle record.
• Current DOT medical examiner's certificate.
• Legally authorized to work in the United States.

No MC authority of your own is required — you run under ours.

What we offer

• 30% of the load, settled weekly. Drivers typically take home $2,500–$3,500 a week, consistently, with all miles paid.
• An established, licensed authority to lease onto. No paperwork to build your own operation from scratch.
• Consistent freight so your truck isn't sitting between loads.
• One dispatcher who knows your equipment and your preferences, not a rotating call queue.
• 24/7 dispatch support if you break down on the road.
• Same-day onboarding once you're approved.

Settlement

30% of the load, settled weekly. Because you supply the truck, the pay structure is different from our company-driver rate — drivers typically take home $2,500–$3,500 a week, consistently, with all miles paid. Your recruiter walks you through the current terms, fuel surcharge and any deductions on the first call. Call (630) 895-5050 and ask directly.

How to apply

The application takes about 10 seconds: your name, your phone number, your experience, and a photo of the front of your CDL.

We verify your CDL is active automatically. If it is, our AI calls within 30 seconds for a short initial interview about your equipment and experience. If that goes well, we check your MVR instantly, and a live recruiter calls within 1 business day to talk through settlement terms and coordinate your start — most drivers are onboarded and rolling the same day.
