OTR Trucking Jobs In Iowa

Iowa

Iowa is the heart of America's agricultural engine, providing a unique and consistent freight volume for OTR trucking jobs in Iowa. OTR drivers here are essential for moving massive amounts of grain, livestock, and ethanol, as well as manufactured goods from the state's growing industrial base. I-80 and I-35 are the main corridors, connecting the West Coast to the East and the North to the South, making Iowa a key stopping point for cross-country hauls. The state offers long, open stretches of highway, which is ideal for maximizing miles and minimizing congestion.

While the freight is heavily influenced by the agricultural cycle, the demand for OTR drivers remains strong year-round, particularly for those who can handle dry bulk and specialized food-grade hauls. Carriers in Iowa often offer excellent pay and benefits, recognizing the importance of their drivers to the nation's food supply chain. If you're an OTR professional looking for consistent miles, a strong sense of purpose, and a base in the heartland, explore the top OTR trucking opportunities in the Hawkeye State today.
