Why Box Truck Driver Hiring is Different in Augusta
Augusta is an I-20 inland feeder for the Port of Savannah and ships heavy volumes of kaolin clay (Georgia produces ~8 million tons annually, much of it through Augusta). Flatbed and end-dump demand is steady year-round, with paper mill freight adding consistent dry van loads. The Fort Eisenhower military footprint drives periodic high-security DoD moves requiring TWIC and CDL-A with clean records.
