Accuracy in record-keeping and adherence to DOT hours of service requirements are critical aspects of the role. Other duties include unloading damaged goods and customer returns, maintaining cleanliness and organization of trailers, and handling paperwork meticulously. The driver must communicate professionally with customers, vendors, and co-workers, fostering strong working relationships and providing excellent service consistently.
