Why ship with Eagle AxisWhy drivers stay
Built around the driver.
Nobody here is a truck number. Your dispatcher knows your name, your lanes, and when you need to be home, and the technology behind us keeps every promise in writing.
Paid every Friday
Weekly direct deposit, no waiting on the broker. Your settlement shows every load, every mile, every deduction.
24/7 dispatch, real people
Breakdown at 2 a.m.? A person answers. Not a call center, not a bot. The same team you talk to every day.
Dry van, no-touch freight
Drop and hook where we can, no flatbed tarping, no reefer washouts. Midwest, South, and East Coast lanes.
Home time you can plan on
Company drivers are home every other weekend. Owner operators set their own schedule. We plan around it, not against it.
Late-model equipment
2020 and newer Freightliner and Volvo automatics with inverter, fridge, microwave, and APU. Pet and rider friendly.
Transparent from day one
Pay, deductions, and expectations are in writing before you sign. No surprises on your first settlement.
Tech-driven, powered by Strivie
Less paperwork. More miles.
Eagle Axis runs on Strivie, a modern trucking management platform. That means your loads, documents, and settlements live in one app instead of a fax machine and a phone tree.
Driver app
Load details, stop addresses, and dispatch messages on your phone. Upload a BOL or POD from the dock and you're done.
Settlements you can read
Every week's statement is itemized in the app before it hits your account. No surprises, no chasing the office.
Paperwork signed on your phone
Lease agreements, onboarding forms, and load documents are signed digitally. Orientation takes a day, not a week.
Live tracking, fewer check calls
ELD and GPS feed dispatch automatically, so nobody calls you at 3 a.m. to ask where you are.
Compliance handled
Medical cards, CDL expirations, and inspections are tracked in the system, and you get a heads-up before anything lapses.
One place for everything
Dispatch, safety, payroll, and recruiting all run on the same platform, so the left hand always knows what the right hand promised you.
Eagle Axis is a carrier on the Strivie trucking TMS. Strivie is the trucking management platform that runs Eagle Axis: dispatch, driver app, settlements, safety, and compliance in one system.
Real conversations. Real answers.
