Calculation & source notes

86 CPM × 2,750 miles/week. Carrier advertises 2,500–3,000 miles/week for this job category; work volume is not guaranteed. Includes ELITE performance bonus, assuming the advertised bonus conditions are met (76 base + 10 bonus CPM). One-time bonuses and premiums for an unspecified share of miles are not added. Uses the midpoint of each advertised rate/work-volume range, not a measured driver average. Gross earnings before taxes, not take-home pay.

Advertised recruiting route, not a separately dated job requisition. Weekly mileage figures are goals, not guarantees. Solo/team setup and individual-pay comparability are not explicit, so this offer is excluded from numeric rankings until clarified. Recruiting-page application entry only; final eligibility and portal submission have not been tested. Solo assumed because the source does not specify solo or team driving. Operator correction: ELITE is up to 10 CPM; older source quotations may show superseded rates.

A−Offer grade

How this offer grade is calculated

Based on the available source evidence, not a market rank. Missing job details or comparable offers limit the pay comparison.

The same weighted rubric applies to every carrier. Comparable recurring pay has the greatest influence, followed by pay credibility, documented benefits, home time, and source quality and freshness. Missing information uses neutral placeholders, not an assumption that a benefit is absent.

Comparable pay: Neutral placeholder: comparable categories, current individual pay, or at least 3 other carriers are not yet confirmed.
Pay credibility: Advertised base / range. Published rate and weekly workload support a direct earnings calculation. Advertisements are not independently verified earnings.
Benefits: Documented benefits: Health coverage, Dental / vision, Retirement plan, Employer retirement match, Paid leave / holidays. Unlisted benefits are unknown, not confirmed absent; costs, eligibility and exclusions still require confirmation.
Home time: Not documented; neutral placeholder. Personal schedule preferences vary.
Source quality & freshness: Direct official / verified source. Oldest evidence 1 days old.

This assessment is provisional because some evidence or comparable offers remain unconfirmed.

Offer assessment, not a carrier rating or a promise of actual earnings. Every carrier is assessed using the same weighted evidence-based rubric. No carrier receives a guaranteed grade or a sponsor-based score adjustment.
