Handle the Heavyweights of Delivery
Not every package is a small padded envelope. Customers routinely order large electronics, home gym equipment, and flat-packed furniture for home delivery. We are seeking physically elite professionals for the role of Heavy/Bulky Item Delivery Specialist. You will operate a larger box truck (often working with a designated Delivery Helper) to safely transport and deliver oversized packages that standard couriers cannot handle. This role pays a premium for your strength and coordination.
Heavy Logistics Execution
- Team Lifting & Maneuvering: Work safely with a partner to execute heavy lifts, utilizing equipment like hand trucks, appliance dollies, and lifting straps to move packages weighing 70 to 150+ lbs.
- Box Truck Operation: Safely drive a 16-foot to 24-foot straight truck through residential streets, mastering the use of the hydraulic liftgate.
- Threshold Delivery: Deliver large items securely to the customer's front door, garage, or designated receiving area, ensuring zero property damage during the transport process.
The Heavy Freight Payoff
Because this role requires specialized physical effort and larger vehicle operation, it offers a significantly higher starting wage than standard parcel delivery. You will also receive comprehensive safety training, high-quality protective gear, and robust medical benefits.
Requirements
Must be at least 21 years old. A valid standard driver's license is required (CDL is a plus but not mandatory). You must possess exceptional, verifiable physical strength and endurance. A pristine driving record and the ability to pass a rigorous DOT-style physical and background check are mandatory.
