OTR Power Only Driver Jobs in Nebraska — Now Hiring

TruckingJobsInUSA is actively hiring experienced Power Only drivers for over-the-road (OTR) positions based in Nebraska. We are a CDL driver recruiting agency placing qualified drivers with vetted, well-established carriers across the United States — and we have immediate openings for drivers domiciled in and around Omaha, Nebraska.

This is a full-time Power Only driving position paying $51,500 - $72,500/year depending on experience, lane, and safety record. Home time: Out 2–3 weeks. We work with multiple client carriers, so once you apply our recruiters match you to the opening that best fits your home-time, pay, and equipment preferences — there is no cost to you, ever.

Pay context for Nebraska: the statewide CDL-A average is $55,800, and the strongest-paying metros are Omaha (about $60,200), Lincoln (about $56,800), Grand Island (about $54,200). Nebraska sits below the national cost-of-living average (index 90), so pay stretches further here — adjusted for living costs the equivalent is roughly $62,000. Wage trend is currently stable — Nebraska wages are steady, anchored by the I-80 cross-country corridor, Werner Enterprises headquarters in Omaha, and massive beef and grain agricultural freight.

Speed limits for trucks in Nebraska run 75 mph (same as cars), with 75 mph on rural interstates. Tolls: No toll roads in the state.

Fuel tax in Nebraska is $0.284 per gallon diesel + federal, which matters if you are comparing per-mile offers across state lines. Inspection climate: Moderate. Nebraska State Patrol commercial vehicle unit focuses on I-80 corridor and agricultural haulers.

How it works: apply with the quick form below (under 60 seconds, no resume needed), one of our recruiters calls you to confirm your experience and what you're looking for, and we set up interviews with the carriers that match. You choose the offer that's right for you.

We require a minimum of 12 months of verifiable CDL-A driving experience for this role. If you have at least one year behind the wheel and a clean record, we want to talk to you.
