This particular position involves a crucial role within the warehouse operations team, ensuring the timely and accurate delivery of goods to customer sites or through defined delivery routes. The role requires the driving and operation of Encore-owned, leased, or rented trucks that fall under the medium-duty category with a gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of less than 26,001 pounds.

Key vehicle care tasks include performing daily vehicle inspections, managing fluid levels such as wiper fluid and Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF), and reporting any damages or traffic violations promptly. This position demands effective time management, excellent communication skills, and a team-oriented mindset.
