Why Drive for Central Oregon Truck Company?

\n

Central Oregon Truck Company isn't a starter carrier - it's where skilled drivers land and stay.

If you have real OTR experience and you're ready for a company that respects it, COTC was built for you.

\n

That commitment shows up in the numbers: top CSA scores, consistent freight, and eleven consecutive years as one of the Best Fleets to Drive For(R). Experienced drivers keep this company running - and we pay like it.
