Job Description

American Expediting is a leading health sciences delivery service provider dedicated to ensuring the timely and reliable transport of crucial medical supplies, documents, and equipment. Our company prides itself on exceptional service delivery, building strong relationships with medical facilities across various locations. Operating as a trusted partner in the healthcare logistics sector, we understand the vital role our courier drivers play in helping save lives by providing expedited transport services. As a 1099 Independent Contractor Medical Courier Driver with American Expediting, you will be part of a dynamic team contributing directly to the healthcare supply chain's efficiency and responsiveness.

This contractual role offers flexible work opportunities especially suited for individuals who are reliable, responsible, and have a personal vehicle. Unlike traditional employment, independent contractor drivers maintain autonomy over their schedules while working primarily Monday through Friday between 8 am and 8 pm, with additional weekend shifts as needed. With no earnings cap and excellent rates, this position is ideal for self-motivated drivers seeking supplemental or primary income sources. You will benefit from a strong customer base that values punctuality and professionalism in medical courier services.

As an independent contractor, you are required to provide your own reliable car and adhere to strict operational standards to maintain American Expediting’s high-quality service. Your duties will involve on-demand deliveries to medical facilities, ensuring the safe and timely handling of health sciences shipments. Because of the critical nature of our cargo, you must demonstrate a commitment to safety, detailed communication, and excellent customer care. This role requires undergoing background checks and motor vehicle record reviews to guarantee compliance with industry and company standards. In addition to maintaining valid insurance coverage with proper liability limits, you will be expected to obtain TSA certification and customer-specific medical certifications, both of which American Expediting will provide upon contracting.

Working as a 1099 contractor offers significant independence and flexibility, but also requires you to manage your tax reporting, health coverage, vehicle expenses, and insurance needs independently. The weekly potential earnings range from $200 to $500, reflecting your hours worked and delivery volume. This role is well-suited for individuals who enjoy driving, value independence, and want a meaningful way to support healthcare services in their community. Join American Expediting to play a key role in delivering lifesaving materials while enjoying flexible contract work with competitive compensation and professional support.
