Truck driving jobs come in different types based on the routes you drive. Over-the-Road (OTR) drivers go on long trips, traveling across many states and usually staying on the road for weeks at a time. Regional drivers stick to a certain area, covering a few states, and they usually get home once a week. Local drivers work in one city or nearby areas and get to go home every day. Each type of driving job offers different schedules, so you can choose what fits your lifestyle best.

OTR Trucking Jobs are "Over The Road" trucking jobs. Truck drivers with OTR Experience are truck drivers with a Class A CDL that spend more time out on the road than any other type of truck driver. They are away from home hauling freight across state lines for days, weeks, or in some cases even months. These drivers are very important to the supply chain and can land high paying jobs once they've gained experience.

Most truck driving jobs require a clean driving record, driver abstract, driver pefermance record (DPR), or similar evidence that you haven't been in any recent accidents. In Ontario, Canada the Ministry of Transportation of Ontario (MTO) keeps records of driver's history. So it is common for trucking companies in Ontario to require truck drivers to have a clean MTO driver abstract before being hired for a job.
