A Day in the Life

A typical day as a local driver starts at the company yard, where you do a pre-trip inspection and pick up your load or delivery manifest. You make several stops within the metro area or surrounding communities, handling pickups and drop-offs at loading docks, stores, and customer sites. The work is fast-paced with plenty of backing and maneuvering, but the trade-off is being home every night with weekends off.

  • + No need to live in a sleeper cab
  • + Consistent daily routine and work-life balance

  • More physical work with frequent loading and unloading
  • Heavy city traffic and tight dock maneuvering
  • Early morning start times (often 3 AM to 5 AM)
  • Higher number of stops per day means more paperwork
