Job Description

J.B. Hunt is a prominent American logistics and transportation company known for delivering innovative and efficient freight solutions across the United States. Operating as a leader in trucking and freight management, J.B. Hunt offers a comprehensive range of transportation services including intermodal, dedicated contract services, truckload, and final mile delivery. The company has built its reputation on reliable service, advanced technology integration, and a commitment to customer satisfaction, making it a preferred partner for both businesses and independent contractors. With a vast network and a strong presence nationwide, J.B. Hunt continues to expand its reach in the last-mile delivery market to meet growing consumer demands.

The opportunity at hand is within J.B. Hunt's Final Mile Services division, specifically targeting independent contractors with active DOT and MC authorities. This contracting role focuses on home delivery services that encompass the delivery and installation of large goods such as appliances, fitness equipment, and furniture. The role offers established carriers a chance to work with a consistent customer base supported by well-structured routes. Contractors can expect a competitive average daily pay ranging between $650 and $750, with the flexibility of a Monday through Sunday workweek and a 10-hour daily shift.

As a contracted final mile delivery carrier, individuals will leverage their expertise in home delivery logistics and customer interaction to provide white glove services which include careful handling, setup, and installation of large household items. The position emphasizes hands-on experience, requiring past work with appliance delivery and installation, as well as careful management of flatbed trucks. Contractors benefit from access to third-party discounts on truck rentals, fuel, and tools, enhancing their operational cost efficiency. Additionally, J.B. Hunt’s extensive network of nationwide accounts offers a steady stream of business opportunities and growth potential.

The role demands a professional, reliable contractor who values customer satisfaction and safety while meeting delivery schedules. Those interested must have an active DOT and MC number and at least one year of home delivery experience. A flatbed truck for transportation and a readiness to handle the physical demands of appliance installation are also essential. With a payment structure based on actual settlements, carriers can potentially maximize earnings depending on their choices and route preferences.

This position suits independent contractors seeking to capitalize on their skills in final mile logistics and home delivery within a structured, supportive environment. Interested candidates can contact J.B. Hunt via phone or email for more information about opportunities available in their area. This is a contract-based opportunity that offers financial rewards and the chance to be part of a nationally recognized logistics leader.
