Regional trucking is a rewarding career. Why? Because you’re working almost fully locally. You have more control over your schedule and the personal relationships you cherish won’t suffer because you won’t be at the steering wheel for days at a time.
But what makes Utah so special to drive in, locally or otherwise? There are lots of reasons. If you’re local to one of the fine cities in this incredibly gorgeous state, then you may already be aware of just how great a road trip can be – but why not get paid to do it?
Let’s take a look at the sights you’ll see while driving for Truline in Utah.

Logan is close to the home of Bear Lake State Park (52 miles down the I-89) which has pristine blue waters and lush green mountains as its backdrop. There’s no missing it while en route.
Park City is a picturesque mountain town located in the Wasatch Range of the Rocky Mountains.
