Job Description

Our company is a reputable leader in the logistics and freight transportation industry, dedicated to providing reliable, efficient, and safe delivery services across multiple states. Based in Redding, California, we specialize in commercial trucking services with a focus on Pickup and Delivery (P&D) operations. Our commitment to excellence, safety, and customer satisfaction has positioned us as a trusted partner for businesses requiring dependable freight transport solutions. We operate a fleet of commercial vehicles and employ skilled drivers who are essential to our mission of delivering goods securely and promptly.

We are currently seeking experienced Class A CDL Pickup and Delivery Truck Drivers to join our dedicated team. This role is crucial in ensuring the smooth operation of our day-to-day logistics by transporting freight securely across intra-state and inter-state routes, travelling between service centers and designated meet-and-turn points. The position offers an hourly pay range of $32.00 to $34.50, reflecting the importance and expertise required to execute these responsibilities efficiently and safely.

As a Class A CDL P&D Truck Driver, you will be responsible for operating commercial vehicles equipped with various trailer combinations, adhering strictly to all federal and state safety and transportation regulations. This includes compliance with hours of service, traffic laws, and specialized hazardous materials transportation requirements.

The role also involves loading, unloading, and securing freight, requiring attention to detail to prevent cargo damage during transit.

Drivers in this position utilize company-provided IT equipment to log electronic driver logs (ELD), vehicle inspection reports (VIR), trip details, and dispatch information in compliance with company policies. Upholding a professional demeanor with customers and team members represents our company’s values and commitment to service excellence.

The position requires physical endurance and cognitive awareness, with tasks involving sitting, standing, walking, bending, kneeling, climbing, lifting, and the ability to read shipment manifests, interpret navigation data, and identify labels accurately. You will work in various environments including indoor docks, enclosed vehicles, and outdoor settings, sometimes under challenging weather or lighting conditions.

Our operating schedule offers flexibility with shifts that vary based on business needs, typically covering Monday through Sunday with shifts in the morning and evening, ensuring that our drivers can align their work schedule effectively with operational demands. This opportunity not only rewards dependable and skilled drivers with competitive pay but also provides a comprehensive benefits package designed to support your health, financial security, and work-life balance.
