As the national economy bounces back, Iowa’s need for truck drivers is on the rise. In fact, Iowa’s demand for truck drivers is expected to increase 8% faster than the national average (O*Net, 2015). This growth may lead to almost 1500 new jobs in the state each year through 2022 (O*Net, 2015). Pay rates vary from company to company, but in general, Iowa trucking salaries are close to the national average. O*Net reports that the average salary for an Iowa truck driver is $40,800 per year.
A huge number of truck driving companies are either headquartered in Iowa or have large locations in Iowa. As you begin your job search, you may find job listings at companies like West Side Transport, C.R. England, Groendyke Transportation, and TMC Transportation.
Driving a tractor-trailer or straight truck is a serious responsibility, which is why the Iowa Department of Transportation has such strict regulations for those who drive commercial vehicles. Before you can begin driving a truck for work, you must earn your commercial driver's license—either a Class A, Class B, or Class C license.
The state of Iowa does not require a certain amount or type of training for new commercial drivers. However, the Department of Transportation does require drivers to pass a rigorous set of examinations. Truck driving school can help you at each step of the way. First, you must pass a written exam that covers driving laws in Iowa. Then, you can take the skills exam. The skills exam tests your driving and vehicle inspection abilities. Passing these exams gives you a CDL that is valid for two to eight years.
There are few things you can do that are as beneficial for your career as networking. When you meet other truck drivers and industry professionals, you can learn more about legislative changes, local events, and job opportunities.
Look into joining a local group like the Iowa Motor Truck Association. This organization is over 70 years old, providing advocacy services, educational events, and networking events to its members. Educational events include safety training, planning seminars, and leadership classes.
Fun events offered by the IMTA include a management conference, annual truck driving championships, and an annual golf outing.
