OTR / Extended Away Driving at XPO
XPO is one of the largest LTL (less-than-truckload) carriers in North America following its separation from GXO Logistics. The company has a vast terminal network and offers drivers local and regional routes with consistent home time.
Traditional over-the-road trucking keeps you out for 3-4 weeks at a time, covering thousands of miles coast to coast. This is the highest-paying schedule for company drivers because it maximizes productive miles. It is also the most demanding lifestyle, which is why turnover in OTR positions remains the highest in the industry.
