Heavy Haul Driver Jobs

Getting into heavy haul trucking starts with obtaining a valid CDL. From there, seek employers that specialize in oversize and overweight freight, like Kodiak Freight. Familiarity with DOT regulations, permit requirements, and specialized trailer types such as Landoll tilt-deck and flatbed is essential.

Heavy haul and oversize/overweight freight driving consistently rank among the highest-paying CDL positions due to the specialized skill set, permit compliance, and equipment expertise required. Roles involving crane and rigging, Landoll transport, and power-only OD moves — like those at Kodiak Freight — typically command premium compensation compared to standard dry van or regional routes.

Kodiak Freight CDL drivers haul oversize and overweight freight including agricultural equipment, industrial machinery, mining equipment, data center components, and railroad materials. Drivers operate specialized trailers such as Landoll tilt-deck and flatbed units, and may support power-only OD moves where customers provide their own trailers.

Applicants must hold a valid Commercial Driver's License (CDL). All drivers must comply with DOT regulations governing oversize and overweight load transport, adhere to federal and state hours-of-service rules, and meet Kodiak Freight's safety standards. Experience with specialized heavy haul trailers is beneficial but specific requirements can be confirmed during the application process.

Kodiak Freight serves clients across the USA with a strong presence in Texas, the Midwest, and the Great Plains. Driver routes vary based on freight lanes and contracted dedicated fleet services. Specific route details and lane assignments are discussed during the hiring process through the IntelliApp portal or via direct contact with the operations team.
