Chances are you've seen those shiny maroon flatbed trucks traveling down the road with a perfectly tarped load. Want to join us? Do you have what it takes to be a professional Maverick driver? We believe it takes a special type of person to be a true Maverick. Pride, hard work, a professional appearance and attitude are just a few of the things that make our drivers so unique. Maverick made its name in flatbed and we have several opportunities available for drivers that meet our standards of excellence.

Experience is great but not required. We offer flatbed training to prepare you for the road. During training, we will teach you the proper securement techniques required of a Maverick flatbed driver. Our extended training program is available to those without flatbed experience or who might need extra flatbed training.

What if I don't have flatbed experience?

We offer flatbed training. During training, we will teach you the proper securement techniques required of a flatbed driver. Our extended training program is available to those without flatbed experience or to those who might need extra flatbed training.

If you have less than six months of over the road experience, you will need to complete our student training program.

Once this process is complete, we will send your application to our hiring committee for final approval.

What is your policy on traffic tickets and criminal background?

At Maverick we have our own point system we use to evaluate your Motor Vehicle Report. We also have a policy regarding criminal convictions and evaluate each applicant on a case-by-case basis.

Maverick's passenger authorization program allows one rider at a time, 13 years of age & older, and is at no cost to you. We do not allow animals in our trucks.
