CDL Jobs in San Antonio, TX

The I-35 border pipeline

Laredo handles more truck-borne trade with Mexico than any crossing on the continent, and a huge share of it rolls straight up I-35 through San Antonio. That makes the metro a natural base for dry van and regional drivers working transload and cross border freight without ever crossing themselves.

Manufacturing thickens the mix: a major truck assembly plant on the South Side and its supplier network move parts and finished vehicles daily, much of it on dedicated contracts.

What San Antonio drivers should know

I-35 north to Austin is the corridor everyone warns you about, and working drivers route around its worst windows. The cost of living runs below the other big Texas metros, which makes local pay stretch further here than the raw number suggests. Military logistics around the bases adds a steady, security minded freight niche.
