The position also provides a desirable work schedule that offers weekends and holidays off, contributing to a positive work-life balance. Candidates must hold a valid California driver’s license with at least two years of driving experience, a Class B Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) with an air brake endorsement, and the ability to communicate effectively in English.
