What is driveaway?

The truck is the freight.

In traditional trucking, you haul the load. In drive-away, you drive it.

Professional drive-away drivers move commercial vehicles from where they are to where they need to be, from individual trucks (singles) to multiple units moved (deck loads) through specialized decking and boom configurations.

Driveaway vs. Traditional Trucking

Both put professional drivers behind the wheel, but the similarities often end there. See how driveaway compares when it comes to freight, equipment, schedules, flexibility, and life on the road.

Singles vs. Decking: What’s the Difference?

Driveaway can mean moving one truck or several at a time. See how single and deck driving differ, what additional training is involved, and the opportunities each can offer.

How Do Driveaway Drivers Get Home?

Delivering the truck is only part of the trip. Learn how experienced driveaway drivers plan return travel, connect loads, and keep themselves moving efficiently.

Types of Driveaway

Different loads. Different equipment. One way of doing things: driveaway. From moving a single truck to transporting multiple vehicles at once, driveaway offers different opportunities based on your experience, training, and the equipment involved.

Singles Driveaway

The simplest form of driveaway. A driver picks up one commercial vehicle, drives it to its destination, completes the delivery, and then travels to the next opportunity.

Deck Driving

Deck drivers move multiple trucks at once by connecting them in a specialized configuration. It requires additional training and responsibility, but can open the door to higher earning potential and more specialized loads.

Boom Driving

Boom configurations use specialized equipment to connect and transport multiple commercial vehicles together. Drivers need specific training to safely assemble, operate, and undeck these loads.

Specialty Driveaway

Not every load is a traditional truck. Driveaway can include buses, garbage trucks, emergency vehicles, utility trucks, and other specialized commercial vehicles that need professional drivers to get them where they’re going.

Do I need a CDL to become a driveaway driver?
