Job Description

We are a reputable company based in Lebanon, Tennessee, specializing in logistics and freight transportation services. Our business thrives on efficient and reliable local transportation solutions, and we pride ourselves on maintaining high standards of safety and professionalism. As part of our commitment to excellence, we continuously seek skilled and dedicated individuals to join our team and support our mission to provide top-tier service to our clients. We are currently looking to fill a vital role within our operations: a Local Driver position.

This Local Driver will be an essential member of our team responsible for shuttling trucks and trailers within the local area and executing timely local deliveries. Operating within a dynamic yard environment, the driver will handle various duties that keep our transportation network running smoothly. The position offers a day shift schedule from 6 pm to 6 am, providing consistency and reliability in working hours. Importantly, this role is a no-touch freight position, meaning the driver will not be required to load or unload cargo manually, promoting safety and convenience.

The job provides an excellent opportunity for professional drivers who value being home every night while delivering dependable service in a local capacity. This role may include overtime opportunities for those seeking to increase their earnings. The driver will operate transport vehicles including bobtail trucks and dry vans and will report directly to the dock supervisor. A critical aspect of the position involves the ability to retrieve downed or abandoned equipment, ensuring smooth operational flow and readiness of equipment within the yard.

Offering competitive pay starting at $24.00 per hour, this full-time position comes with a comprehensive benefits package designed to support the well-being and financial security of our employees. Benefits include options like 401(k), health, dental, vision, life, and disability insurance, paid time off, and a robust retirement plan. We embrace a culture of inclusivity and encourage individuals with a criminal record to apply.
