What is driveaway?
The truck is the freight.
In traditional trucking, you haul the load. In driveaway, you drive it.
Professional driveaway 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.

Is Driveaway Right for You?
Do I need a CDL to become a driveaway driver?
For most Norton opportunities, you’ll need a valid Class A or B CDL along with commercial driving experience. Because you’re moving commercial vehicles themselves, professional driving experience matters.
How much can I earn as a driveaway driver?
Earnings vary based on how often you drive, the loads you choose, where you’re willing to travel, and the type of driveaway work you do. Drivers who move into specialized opportunities like decking can open the door to additional earning potential.
Do I get to choose where and when I drive?
Yes. As an independent contractor, you choose from available loads rather than being forced into dispatch. That gives you more control over when you work, where you travel, and how much you want to drive.
How do driveaway drivers get home after a delivery?
Since you leave the vehicle at its destination, return travel is part of the driveaway lifestyle. Drivers may use rental cars, flights, buses, public transportation, or coordinate their next load to keep moving efficiently.
What’s the difference between singles and deck driving?
Singles drivers typically move one commercial vehicle from origin to destination. Deck drivers use specialized equipment to move multiple trucks together, which requires additional training and responsibility but can also provide access to higher-value opportunities.
