The Package Delivery Driver role at UPS is a full-time position that requires successfully operating UPS delivery trucks on assigned routes to ensure the smooth and timely delivery of packages.

This role typically offers a competitive starting wage of $45 per hour or more, with additional overtime opportunities during peak seasons. The role not only emphasizes safe driving practices and operational efficiency but also focuses on creating a positive customer experience, making it ideal for individuals who thrive in a fast-paced, customer-facing environment. UPS supports its drivers with benefits such as medical, dental, and vision insurance, pension plans, 401(k) retirement savings, paid time off including vacation and holidays, as well as opportunities for wage increases through union negotiations and seniority-based route bids. The Package Delivery Driver position is an excellent opportunity for individuals seeking a stable, rewarding career in the package delivery industry with one of the world’s most respected logistics companies.
