Job Description

American Expediting is a leading provider of health sciences delivery services dedicated to ensuring timely and reliable delivery solutions across medical facilities nationwide. As a company, American Expediting prides itself on an unwavering commitment to exceptional service and forging robust, trust-based relationships with its diverse client base. With a specialized focus in the health sciences logistics industry, the company plays a critical role in supporting medical institutions by facilitating expedited deliveries that are often a crucial link in the healthcare process. Their operations highlight the importance of accuracy, speed, and dependability in handling sensitive and time-critical medical shipments.

Join American Expediting as a 1099 Independent Contractor Medical Courier Driver and become part of a team that directly contributes to saving lives through the timely delivery of essential medical supplies. This role offers impressive flexibility, allowing drivers to work on an on-demand basis from Monday to Sunday between 3pm to 11pm. The position requires the use of your own minivan, supporting a responsive and adaptable transportation approach. This contractor opportunity is ideal for reliable, professional individuals who seek flexible hours and the autonomy to manage their own schedules while benefiting from excellent pay rates with no earnings cap.

As a Medical Courier Driver, your responsibilities will revolve around the safe and efficient delivery of medical specimens and related materials to hospitals, clinics, and laboratories. The role demands a highly dependable individual who can maintain excellent communication and customer service standards while ensuring strict adherence to delivery schedules. You will be instrumental in ensuring same-day service, providing peace of mind to healthcare providers depending on your swift and secure transport. The work environment is dynamic, requiring excellent driving skills, familiarity with local routes, and the ability to navigate priority deliveries under tight timelines. Independent contractors will be expected to uphold stringent standards of quality and professionalism at every stage of the delivery process.

As this is an independent contractor position, drivers are responsible for providing and maintaining their own vehicles — specifically a minivan — as well as handling their own insurance and regulatory needs. To qualify, candidates must be 21 years or older with a valid driver’s license and pass background and motor vehicle record checks. There is also an expectation to obtain TSA certification and customer-specific medical certifications, which the company facilitates once a contract is established. Insurance requirements include coverage at 100/300 liability limits with American Expediting listed as additionally insured or comparable insurance during dispatch periods. Contractors must also comply with Workers’ Compensation or occupational accident insurance requirements per state statutes or have coverage up to $1 million occurrence/accident.

This contract role offers a wage range estimated between $200 to $400 per week, providing a competitive compensation structure aligned with the flexibility and responsibility of the position. It is suitable for self-motivated drivers who value independence, reliability, and the opportunity to provide critical support to healthcare providers through their delivery efforts. If you have a reliable minivan and meet the outlined criteria, American Expediting invites you to join their team and make a tangible difference in medical logistics through this vital courier role.
