Operating nationwide, Caruso ensures that retail partners receive consistently fresh products to meet consumer demands efficiently and reliably.

Caruso is currently seeking experienced Box Truck Drivers to join their team for local delivery routes starting at 9 pm. This role is pivotal in maintaining the company’s strong reputation as drivers act as the primary representatives of Caruso while making timely and safe deliveries. The position requires candidates to be flexible with their weekend schedule due to rotating weekend shifts. Ideal candidates will have proven experience driving 18ft-26ft box trucks, a solid driving record, and the ability to provide exceptional customer service during each delivery.

As a Route Driver at Caruso, individuals will be expected to project professionalism and positivity while interacting with customers. This role is not just about transportation but also about building and sustaining excellent customer relationships, ensuring clients receive their products in excellent condition and on time. The position demands adherence to safety standards, the ability to follow established routes and schedules, and precise handling of delivery documentation like invoices and delivery receipts. Additionally, drivers must be proactive in completing daily vehicle inspections to maintain operational safety and vehicle readiness.

This is an excellent opportunity for qualified drivers who are looking for steady employment with a family-oriented company that values safety, reliability, and exceptional service. The compensation for this role offers up to $26.00 per hour, reflecting experience and licensing qualifications. Beyond competitive wages, Caruso offers comprehensive benefits including medical, dental, and vision insurance options, along with retirement plans, paid time off, and various bonuses, further enhancing the appeal for candidates seeking long-term career growth in the transportation and fresh produce delivery sector.
