With a history of over 90 years of senior management experience, Shoreline has established itself as a trusted transportation provider known for reliability, safety, and efficient logistics solutions. The company employs advanced technology such as satellite tracking systems on all tractors and trailers, ensuring customers have real-time visibility into the location of their shipments. This commitment to operational excellence and customer satisfaction solidifies Shoreline’s position as a critical link in the supply chain within the region. Shoreline Transportation values its drivers as essential team members and prioritizes their safety and satisfaction above all else. The company's fleet includes new, state-of-the-art 2026 automatic Volvo trucks, providing comfort and reliability for its drivers. This approach underscores Shoreline’s dedication to modernizing its fleet and creating a positive work environment for its driving staff.

The role being offered is for full-time local and regional CDL drivers who can operate daily local shuttle routes between Baton Rouge and New Orleans/Harahan. Shoreline emphasizes home daily schedules, allowing drivers to return home every night, which greatly enhances work-life balance.

This driving position requires a Class A CDL license and a clean driving record, reflecting Shoreline Transportation’s high safety standards. Prospective drivers must have between 18 to 24 months of recent and verified commercial driving experience and must be at least 23 years of age. A current Department of Transportation (DOT) medical examination with a longform certificate is mandatory to ensure physical fitness for the driving tasks. Shoreline encourages candidates from diverse backgrounds, including those with a criminal record, to apply, promoting inclusivity in its hiring practices. The work environment is on the road with a focus on local and regional shuttle routes, utilizing modern equipment designed for maximum driver comfort and operational efficiency.

Overall, this opportunity offers an attractive combination of advanced equipment, competitive benefits including health, dental, vision, and life insurance, paid holidays and vacation, a 401(k) savings plan, and a supportive corporate culture that prioritizes driver safety and satisfaction.
