Job Description

The company hiring for this position is a reputable logistics and transportation provider that specializes in local freight delivery services, particularly focusing on food and produce. With a commitment to reliable and timely deliveries, the company ensures that its fleet, comprising automatic trucks and dry van (reefer) equipment, maintains high standards for safety and professionalism. Operating a Monday through Friday schedule, this company offers its drivers the unique advantage of a consistent workweek and daily home time, which is highly valued in the demanding logistics industry.

This Class A Local CDL Driver role is designed for individuals who value steady, predictable work hours and the opportunity to operate modern equipment in a supportive environment. The role emphasizes the importance of safe operation, customer interaction, and efficient handling of products, specifically food and produce, which require careful transportation to preserve quality and safety. Drivers can expect to work an average of 40 hours per week, starting each day at 7:00 AM, which supports a healthy work-life balance.

The position demands not only driving expertise but also the physical ability to load and unload goods, operate pallet jack equipment, and assist with warehouse tasks when necessary. The ideal candidate will have a strong safety record, excellent communication skills, and the ability to maintain professionalism at every customer site. This role offers $29 per hour, representing a competitive wage within the local trucking and logistics sector.

In addition, the employer places a high priority on compliance with industry standards. Applicants must hold a valid Class A CDL with a minimum of 12 months recent verifiable experience within the past three years. A strong motor vehicle record free of excessive violations, a current Department of Transportation (DOT) Medical Card, and a stable employment history are essential requirements. Forklift experience is a plus but not mandatory, while experience with pallet jack operation is required to facilitate the loading and unloading processes.

Overall, this opportunity is tailored for drivers who value stability, safety, and the ability to return home daily while working in a dynamic environment that serves critical sectors such as food and produce delivery. It represents an excellent career move for experienced CDL drivers seeking a dependable employer with competitive pay and a balanced schedule.
