Celadon Trucking (A Financially Sound Carrier) - Celebrating 25 Years of business

Celadon is currently seeking Company Drivers and Team Drivers for OTR positions.
We’re Celadon Trucking Services and we didn’t get to be one of the leading carriers in North America by not caring about who drives for us and what they have to say. This is why for years we’ve had a 100% “open door” policy. You won’t have to make an appointment or talk through a glass window to your dispatchers. You’ve got a problem, just walk right in and let us know. This policy starts at the CEO and goes all the way down the chain. When you become part of our team, you’ll also find top equipment where the average age of our trucks is 1.5 years, high miles, competitive pay, and much more. But most importantly, you can expect us to deliver on every promise we make to you - 100% of the time.
