FAQs about payroll for trucking companies

  • How do most trucking companies pay their drivers?

    Many trucking companies pay drivers by the mile (CPM), by the hour, or by salary. Paying by the mile is the most common, especially for line haul/over-the-road (OTR) drivers, but many companies also offer bonuses for safety, fuel efficiency, or timely deliveries. With OnPay’s trucking payroll software, companies can easily manage any pay structure — including custom rates for miles, loads, or hours — and run payroll as often as needed. We make it simple to stay compliant, pay drivers and owner-operators on time, and keep everything organized in one place.

  • Can I pay drivers and owner-operators with OnPay?

    Yes! OnPay’s payroll for truckers and drivers is built to handle the unique needs of trucking companies. You can easily pay both drivers and owner-operators — all in the same payroll run. Whether you’re paying by the mile, hour, or load, OnPay lets you customize pay types and schedules to match how your team works. We also handle tax filings, new hire reporting, and direct deposit payments, so you can spend less time on paperwork and more time keeping your trucks moving.

  • How much does it cost for me to run payroll for my drivers?

    OnPay’s pricing is simple, starting at a monthly price of $49, plus $6 per worker paid that month, including for driver payroll. Plus, your first month is free! There are no hidden fees or surprises.
