LAWRENCE ANNOUNCES LARGEST DRIVER PAY INCREASE IN COMPANY HISTORY
Roanoke, VA – Lawrence Freight, a 100% employee-owned carrier headquartered in Roanoke, VA, is
pleased to announce a substantial pay increase for their company drivers. Effective January 1st,
Lawrence is introducing new pay packages for both over-the-road truckload and flatbed company
drivers.
The new pay package will pay company drivers up to $0.70 cents per mile, which represents up to a 40%
increase in pay for company drivers. The Freight division will also continue to incentivize safety by
including a Quarterly Safety Bonus, which is an additional $0.025 cents per mile or up to $3,000.00
annually!
“Our drivers have continued to provide exceptional service to our customers in one of the most
demanding periods of time our country has experienced in peacetime,” said Chief Executive Officer,
Warren Groseclose. “Professional truck drivers are the most important link in the supply chain and
without them, our economy would fail and millions of our fellow Americans would suffer.”
This increase will allow truckload drivers to earn up to $88,000 and flatbed drivers to earn up to $92,000
annually. This announcement follows a pay increase of $0.04 per mile for over-the-road company
drivers in April 2021.
