CDL-B Local Delivery Truck Driver

Our company is looking for a local delivery driver in Austin, TX to run daily routes with multiple stops. You'll pick up a loaded truck from the cross-dock after the overnight delivery, run your route, and bring the empty truck back to the lot at the end of the day.

What you'll do

• Hand-truck product off the trailer and into customer storage areas, sometimes down ramps, stairs or docks in any weather

• Lift, push or carry product generally between 1-75 pounds, occasionally up to 100 pounds, and reach as high as 72 inches to stack or unstack pallets

• Confirm deliveries with customers and get signatures, flagging any invoice mismatches to management and reporting errors or returns

• Call in any short orders and handle customer concerns professionally

• Complete DOT-required pre-trip and post-trip truck checks and follow company safety procedures

• Pitch in occasionally with loading trucks or palletizing product as needed

Requirements

• High school diploma, GED or equivalent

• At least one year of route delivery experience or comparable straight-truck driving background

• Valid Class B CDL (Class A is a plus)

• Sufficient English skills to communicate with customers, read road signs, respond to official requests and complete paperwork

• Comfortable working in confined spaces and able to climb on and off the truck box

• Able to handle frequent bending, squatting, pushing and pulling, with regular lifting up to 50 lbs and occasional lifts up to 80 lbs

What matters on the job

• Hitting or beating your assigned route times

• Keeping error rates low and productivity at or above company standards

• Strong customer service instincts and the ability to resolve problems on your own

• Basic math skills, with cash-handling experience a plus

• Working well independently while staying in communication with other departments on routing and safety

Our company is an equal opportunity employer.
