Ways to Drive with Onyx

Pick your lane

Onyx runs flatbed and hotshot freight across all 48 states, and we have room for company drivers and owner operators alike. Whichever way you drive, you get the same deal: percentage pay, weekly settlements, and a dispatch team that knows you by name.

01

Flatbed is harder work. We treat it that way.

Tarping in the wind. Chaining down a load in the rain. Flatbed drivers earn their money, and too many companies act like that effort is just part of the deal. Not here.

At Onyx, your dispatcher knows you by name and answers when you call, day or night. No micromanaging, no automated call center, no getting treated like a number. We're family-owned, and we keep it personal because that's the only way we know how to run a company.

We require two years of commercial experience minimum. The bar is there because every driver in an Onyx truck represents Onyx on the road — to the customer, to the dispatcher on the line, and to every other rig sharing the lane.

Hotshot runs for drivers who like to keep moving

Hotshot is time-sensitive freight — the loads a customer pays a premium to move right now, on a truck that can get on the road fast. Hotshot at Onyx is owner-operator work. You bring your own gooseneck or deck-over rig, and we bring the freight desk. The pace is quick and the work varies. If you already run hotshot and want a steady freight partner, we'd like to meet.

Your truck. Our work. Own it.

Owner-operators run their business. We run the freight desk. If you own your truck and your trailer — flatbed, gooseneck, or deck-over — and want to put both to work without giving up control, we'd like to talk. This is a partnership for owner-ops who already know what they're doing — who can plan their own week, secure their own loads, and want a steady source of freight that respects their independence.
