About this job
Our company in Lakeville, MN is looking for a CDL-B straight truck driver to handle pickup and delivery runs between service centers and customer locations. You'll work in a multi-temperature environment and handle freight by hand and with equipment as needed.
Pay
- Starting at $30.08 per hour, with a range up to $34.82 per hour
- If you're assigned linehaul work, you'll also earn mileage pay plus fixed amounts for certain linehaul tasks, calculated as a fraction (3/4, 1/2, or 1/4) of your hourly rate rather than time worked
- Actual pay depends on factors like experience, location, schedule and performance
What you'll do
- Drive straight trucks on pickup and delivery routes, meeting schedules while delivering friendly, professional service and helping bring in new business
- Load and secure freight using pallets, straps, rope and similar tools, and help with loading/unloading as needed, including working as a freight handler when required
- Run forklifts, pallet jacks and hand trucks to move freight
- Do pre-trip, post-trip and safety checks on your equipment, and chain tires when conditions call for it
- Stay in touch with dispatch about delays, arrivals or equipment issues, and fix or repair damaged freight when possible
- Handle paperwork, reports and freight-charge collections accurately
- Follow hazmat rules, confirming placards match shipments as required
- Follow all relevant laws, regulations and company policies, plus other duties as assigned
Requirements
- Valid CDL-B with hazmat and tanker endorsements (automatic transmission restriction is fine); if you don't yet have the hazmat endorsement, you'll need to get it within 120 days of accepting the offer, and you can't drive without it after that
- At least 1 year of experience driving a straight truck or similar vehicle within the last 3 years, or completion of the our company Driver Development Course
- Minimum age 21
- An acceptable motor vehicle record per company hiring standards
- Strong customer service, communication and people skills
- Basic math skills (calculator allowed) and the ability to read route schedules
- Able to lift and carry freight up to 100 pounds, and to sit for long stretches, bend, twist, squat and climb in and out of the truck
- Able to follow directions, complete training, and work solo or as part of a team
- Comfortable working indoors and outdoors in all weather, and around noise, vibration, dust, diesel fumes and DOT-regulated hazardous materials; hours can vary with operational needs
