Job Description

The hiring company is a logistics and transportation firm focusing on local freight delivery services, particularly specializing in food and produce transportation. This company values the safety, efficiency, and professionalism of its drivers and provides opportunities for commercial drivers to work predictable schedules with competitive pay. As a local carrier, the firm operates primarily during weekdays with home daily routes, aiming to balance work responsibilities with personal time for its employees. They equip their drivers with automatic trucks and refrigerated dry vans (Reefers) to ensure the quality and freshness of perishable goods throughout transit. The company takes pride in providing stable employment opportunities, fostering a professional environment where safe operation and customer service are top priorities. The pay for this role is $29 per hour, with an average workweek of approximately 40 hours, Monday through Friday starting at 7:00 AM, making it an ideal opportunity for drivers seeking regular schedules and steady income.

This Class A Local CDL Driver role centers on safe and timely delivery of food and produce along local routes. The position requires a dependable driver skilled in operating automatic trucks and handling dry van reefer equipment, with experience in loading and unloading freight. Additionally, the driver will interface with customers at delivery stops, representing the company professionally and providing excellent service. The responsibilities include using pallet jack equipment efficiently, assisting with warehouse activities as needed, and maintaining a strong safety record. The role is tailored for drivers who desire consistent weekday hours with home every day and who meet the minimum requirements including having a valid Class A CDL, current DOT medical certification, and at least 12 months of recent verifiable experience.
