Job Description

TransForce is a leading provider of transportation staffing services, specializing in connecting qualified drivers with reputable companies across North America. With a commitment to safety, reliability, and exceptional service, TransForce supports drivers by providing opportunities that match their skills and career goals. Operating in multiple regions, TransForce is known for its focus on driver satisfaction, offering competitive pay, comprehensive benefits, and flexible assignments that cater to a variety of needs.

This particular opportunity is for a CDL A Route Driver based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. This position involves regional delivery routes, ideal for professional drivers seeking a stable and rewarding driving career with the chance to transition from temporary to permanent employment. The role primarily focuses on delivering food products to various warehouses within a defined route area, ensuring timely and efficient deliveries. Drivers operate automatic trucks, making the job accessible for those accustomed to automatic transmissions.

The driver will typically handle 3 to 10 stops per day on clustered routes, allowing for a manageable and consistent workflow. Loading and unloading responsibilities are part of the job, utilizing equipment such as electric pallet jacks. Some stops require pallet breakdown, requiring attention to detail and careful handling of items. This job is structured to allow drivers to return home daily, supporting a healthy work-life balance, which is highly valued in the transportation industry.

Pay for this role is competitive at $28.00 per hour, with overtime available after 40 hours per week. The work schedule primarily runs Monday through Friday, with Saturdays available for additional work. Dispatch occurs early in the morning, between 2:00 AM and 5:00 AM, while shifts typically last between 8 to 11 hours but guarantee a minimum of 8 hours pay per shift regardless of actual hours worked. This schedule supports predictable income and consistent work opportunities.

The role requires at least 2 years of verifiable CDL A driving experience, experience with pallet jacks, and route delivery expertise. Safety and compliance are paramount, with drivers needing a clean driving record with no more than 2 moving violations in the past three years and full compliance with all Department of Transportation (DOT) and Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) requirements. TransForce emphasizes a light touch handling technique to maintain product integrity during delivery.

Working with TransForce brings multiple benefits, including medical, dental, and vision insurance, paid time off, a 401(k) retirement plan, and referral programs. The company prides itself on offering steady pay and benefits while fostering a supportive team atmosphere. Drivers appreciate assignment flexibility and a company culture that puts their needs first. Applying to this role means joining a respected team that values professional growth, safety, and driver well-being.
