Job Description

American Expediting is a leading provider of health sciences delivery services, dedicated to ensuring timely and reliable deliveries to medical facilities. With a strong reputation in the logistics and medical courier industry, the company prides itself on delivering exceptional service and building lasting relationships with its clients across the healthcare sector. As an organization, American Expediting focuses on expedited and dependable transportation solutions that help support critical medical operations and potentially save lives. The company offers flexible contract opportunities designed to fit a variety of schedules and driver preferences.

We are currently seeking professional and reliable individuals to join our team as 1099 Independent Contractor Medical Courier Drivers. This role is ideal for motivated drivers who own their own minivan or a 26-foot box truck with a liftgate or dock-high access. As an independent contractor with American Expediting, you will play a vital role in ensuring the prompt delivery of medical supplies, lab specimens, pharmaceuticals, and other time-sensitive healthcare materials to various medical institutions including hospitals, clinics, and laboratories. This position offers the flexibility of Monday through Friday on-demand work, allowing contractors to manage their schedules effectively while earning competitive rates with no earnings cap.

Contractors are responsible for providing their own vehicles and covering their related expenses, including insurance and applicable certifications. The role demands a high standard of professionalism, excellent customer service skills, and adherence to safety regulations and company policies. Contractors must be prepared to undergo background and motor vehicle record checks and maintain compliance with all regulatory requirements such as TSA and customer-specific medical certifications, which are provided upon contracting. This ensures a secure and trustworthy delivery process that meets the critical time constraints and sensitive nature of the cargo transported.

The employment type is contractual, classified under a 1099 independent contractor arrangement. Independent contractors handle their own insurance, health coverage, tax reporting, and other personal business expenses. The weekly earning potential for this position ranges from $800 to $1000, depending on deliveries and hours committed. While the job offers part-time hours during the week, it provides ample opportunity for reliable contractors to maximize their income and establish a consistent workflow with a reputable company in the medical courier service industry.

This opportunity is perfect for drivers who wish to combine the flexibility of independent contracting with the meaningful work of supporting healthcare logistics. Those who are detail-oriented, dependable, and motivated will find this role rewarding, both financially and personally. By joining American Expediting, contractors not only gain a partnership with an established leader but also contribute to a larger mission of enhancing patient care through efficient and secure delivery services.
