Why Drive for Central Oregon Truck Company?

Central Oregon Truck Company was built by flatbed drivers-and it's still run by flatbed drivers today. Since 1992, COTC has focused exclusively on flatbed freight, building a reputation for strong pay, safe operations, and drivers who know their craft. Now, we're hiring in your local area!

  • Loyalty pay that starts immediately. Earn up to 5.5CPM in loyalty pay, accruing from day one-rewarding consistency and commitment, not just miles.
  • Extra pay for the work you do. Get paid for the details with $75 tarp pay and $100 dwell pay, so your effort doesn't go unpaid.
  • Extended time out, meaningful time home. Run a 3-week schedule that maximizes earning power, then enjoy a solid reset when it's time to come off the road..
