Job Description
Southeastern is a reputable logistics and transportation company known for its commitment to timely and safe freight delivery. Specializing in freight transportation services, Southeastern operates with a focus on efficiency and customer satisfaction, serving clients across various industries. The company prides itself on providing reliable, non-CDL freight delivery options within local areas, making it an essential part of the supply chain and final mile delivery market.
The Final Mile Driver position at Southeastern is a critical role within the company, designed to ensure that shipments reach their final destinations safely and on schedule. This full-time role is vital for maintaining the high service standards that Southeastern is known for. Drivers operating under this position handle non-hazardous freight in non-CDL-A vehicles, performing duties that include picking up, transporting, and delivering freight locally.
As a Final Mile Driver, you will be responsible for the entire delivery process from load to unload, including inspection and documentation. You will perform frequent lifting, pulling, and carrying of freight, which requires physical stamina and attention to safety protocols. Your responsibilities extend beyond transportation to include careful inspection of your vehicle before, during, and after trips to ensure its safe operating condition. The role demands a keen eye for detail—reviewing shipping papers to confirm the nature of loads and ensuring that all required shipment documentation accompanies deliveries.
This position offers a competitive pay rate ranging from $30.30 to $33.40 per hour, rewarding skilled drivers for their expertise and reliability. Additionally, the role is structured as a first-shift schedule, providing a consistent work routine. Drivers will have the opportunity to grow within the company by entering Southeastern’s Driver Trainee Program after successfully completing one year in this role.
Applicants must meet specific requirements including being at least 21 years old, holding a High School Diploma or GED, and maintaining a valid Driver’s License. The ability to pass background checks and drug and alcohol tests is mandatory, ensuring the safety and trustworthiness of the person behind the wheel. A minimum of six months driving experience, including personal vehicle operation, is required.
Southeastern prefers candidates with experience using pallet jacks, loading and unloading freight, and driving box trucks. Prior delivery driver experience or a CDL B license is also advantageous. This role suits individuals who enjoy working independently, prioritize safety, and desire a stable, rewarding driving career within a respected company. Southeastern’s Final Mile Driver role embodies the core values of responsibility, reliability, and precision in freight delivery, making it a compelling opportunity for those seeking long-term employment in the transportation industry.
