This position provides contractors the flexibility of contract work with a competitive average daily rate of $650 to $750, offering significant earning potential depending on your operational efficiency and choices.

The role demands a commitment to quality service and customer satisfaction, as it involves handling white glove delivery that includes careful installation and placement of items at the customer’s location.

Being part of J.B. Hunt’s nationwide account network opens doors for contracting carriers to scale their business in various regions, fostering growth and long-term business relationships.

This opportunity requires previous home delivery experience, particularly in white glove service scenarios, to ensure professionalism and expertise are delivered to customers. Previous experience with appliance delivery and installation is also mandatory, combined with compliance with US DOT regulations and active MC authority. J.B. Hunt prioritizes safety, regulatory compliance, and the upholding of high customer service standards.
