Hunt continues to expand its services and carrier network to deliver superior value to clients and partners alike.

This opportunity is specifically for established independent contractors who possess an active U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) and Motor Carrier (MC) authority. J.B. Hunt is expanding its Final Mile Services home delivery carrier force to meet increasing demand in delivering and installing large items such as furniture, appliances, and exercise equipment directly into customer homes. This role offers independent contractors the chance to partner with a reputable company, providing them with consistent work, competitive pay, and valuable access to third-party discounts on essential services.

Payment terms for settlements are set at 7 days, supporting cash flow needs for contractors.

This contract role demands professionalism, experience in customer-facing delivery scenarios, and a commitment to exceptional service quality. The company supports its carriers by providing access to nationwide accounts and third-party discounts that help reduce operational expenses such as truck rental, fuel, and tools. Such benefits enhance the profitability and efficiency of the independent contractor's operations. Additionally, the opportunity requires contractors to have specific equipment, including a 26-foot box truck, with liftgate-equipped trucks considered a plus for facilitating deliveries and installations.

The Final Mile Services role with J.B. Hunt is ideal for carriers experienced in white glove service who want to leverage their expertise to build a solid business partnership. J.B. Hunt’s established customer base guarantees consistent delivery routes, reducing downtime and fluctuations in workload. The company maintains transparent communication regarding insurance requirements and provides direct contact options for support and inquiries.
