Drive for DTI Dot Transportation, Inc. (DTI) runs one of the nation’s largest privately owned fleets: built on hard work, honesty, and relationships that last. and Canada.

With reliable equipment and real support, we’re committed to the drivers who keep everything moving. (DTI) is the transportation affiliate of Dot Foods, North America’s largest less-than-truckload consolidator in the food industry. But DTI is its own story. We’re home to one of the largest privately owned trucking fleets in the nation, supporting deliveries to all 50 states and more than 50 countries across 15 distribution centers and 30+ terminals throughout the U.S. Every truck in our fleet is maintained in company garages by our own team of trained mechanics, because quality isn’t something we outsource. DTI has grown right alongside Dot Foods since the beginning, and the same values that built that business run through everything we do here too. We’re a large company that still operates with a small-town mindset: hard work, honest people, and relationships that last. Drivers are supported with competitive pay, consistent miles, and a culture that actually takes care of its people. If you’re looking for stability, consistency, and a team that has your back, DTI delivers. Learn more at drivefordti.com

Flip it! 🔄🚛

Four days on the road and three days at home sounds pretty good. But what if you could flip that schedule the next week?

With DTI's 4x3 flip schedule, that's exactly how it works!

📅 Week 1: Four days on the road, three days at home.
📅 Week 2: Three days on the road, four days at home.

Then you flip it again!

This rotating schedule gives drivers alternating three- and four-day stretches at home, with more time for family, hobbies, appointments, and everything else happening outside the truck.

Think this schedule might be a good fit for you? Check out our current open roles: https://bit.ly/48wCip5

Sometimes the best part of a long day on the road is what happens when the driving is done. 🚛

A call home. A hot meal. Some peace and quiet. Everyone has their own way of winding down.

For World Mental Health Day, we asked DTI drivers what helps them reset. Their answers are a reminder that taking time for yourself matters, even in the middle of a busy week.

And sometimes, it's the little things that make the biggest difference. 💙

Driver Schedules, Explained: 4 on, 4 off. 🚛

Four working days.
Four days off.
Then you do it again. 🔁

That’s the 4x4.

Because it runs on a repeating rotation, your days off don’t always land on a traditional weekend.

Sometimes Tuesday might be your Saturday. Honestly, Tuesday could use the confidence boost. 😎

The upside? Four consecutive days away from work between rotations. That gives you a bigger stretch of time for family, appointments, hobbies, road trips, house projects you may or may not finish...you get the idea. 🏡🎣🛠️

And yes, the working days rotate too. So 4x4 is a better fit for someone who likes a predictable pattern more than a standard Monday-through-Friday routine.

Our Mt. Sterling Dispatch team has found a fun way to highlight DTI employees who go the extra mile. ⭐

Stars are added to a DTI truck painted across the office windows to recognize drivers and dispatch employees for the things their coworkers notice and appreciate. The team also gives those employees a shoutout during Monday morning meetings.

And shoutout to Dispatch Coordinator Natalee Pedroza for the beautiful artwork. 🎨
