Bring Your Truck, Pick Your Pay!

Choose between 75% linehaul/75% fuel surcharge and 70% linehaul/100% fuel surcharge.

You read it right! True owner/operators, both solo and team, can choose the percentage pay package that suits them best: either 75% of both linehaul and fuel revenue or 70% of linehaul and 100% of fuel!

Owner Operator Success Story

William started his career with Celadon in May 2016.

In a given week, he can run anywhere between 2,300 and 2,700 miles. When William isn’t running, he enjoys spending time at rest stops with his Tibetan Spaniel. He also schedules to have 4 days off every 6 weeks so that he can spend time with his family.

Now, William owns his truck and is the perfect example of somebody who has made the most of his partnership with Celadon.

Thank you for your hard work, William!
