This position is responsible for driving delivery vehicles and truck-trailer combinations to transport materials to customer sites. The role serves as a vital link between the company and its clients, ensuring goods are delivered on schedule, undamaged, and with professional service. Drivers act as the primary customer service liaison, handling concerns and resolving issues as they arise.
Your day involves maneuvering vehicles weighing over 26,000 pounds (potentially towing trailers under 10,000 pounds) into loading and unloading positions. You will load, secure, and verify product details against invoices, maintaining accurate logs of delivery duties, weights, and mileage. The role requires operating handheld devices for compliance checks (DVIR and HOS) and performing routine safety inspections to keep vehicles clean and compliant with company guidelines.
In addition to driving, you may operate forklifts or non-motorized equipment to load and offload materials. You will work in a production environment that may involve temperature variations, hazardous chemicals, mechanical parts, noise, and dust. The physical nature of the job includes frequent lifting of up to 100 pounds and occasional lifting of up to 200 pounds with assistance, as well as climbing into vehicle cabs and performing various physical tasks.
Safety is a core priority. You are expected to understand and observe all safety procedures to prevent injury to yourself and co-workers, attend periodic safety meetings, and recommend improvements where necessary. The role emphasizes teamwork, relationship building, and customer focus, requiring the ability to resolve conflicts professionally and support teammates.
To be considered for this position, candidates must possess a valid driver's license and a Class B CDL license. A minimum of one year of delivery driving experience is required, with two years of CDL experience strongly preferred. Applicants must be at least 21 years old, have a High School Diploma or GED, and pass a Motor Vehicle Report (MVR) with fewer than five moving violations in the last five years. A DOT medical card must be obtained within five days of a request. Basic math and measurement skills, along with the ability to read and speak English, are essential.
