There are varieties of truck driving jobs in freight shipping. A dedicated job is one of them. But what exactly does it mean? It’s a job type when truck drivers have routes for one company or a specific delivery location. For example, the driver works for Walmart or Whole Foods, so they haul freight regularly and only for this particular company. It can be rout from their warehouse to the grocery store and back. Then they repeat the trip. If you fed up with OTR trucking but would like to have a high income, dedicated trucking can be the right choice for you.
