Package Delivery Cover Driver

$28 per hour
Full-time

United Parcel Service

Seasonal Cover Driver (with Warehouse Support)

Become a key part of our UPS team in a dynamic combo role, with a strong focus on driving! At this time of year, you’ll primarily serve as a  Seasonal Cover Driver , stepping in to support delivery operations and keep things moving. When needed, you’ll also be trained to assist as a Seasonal Warehouse Worker. 

Your day-to-day assignment will vary based on business needs such as package volume, staffing needs, and seasonal demand. You may rotate between driving and warehouse duties—sometimes week to week, and other times spending extended periods in one role before transitioning to the other.

If being outside, hitting the road, and keeping active sound like your kind of day—this job is for you!

Please Note: This is a seasonal position; schedules may vary and can include Monday through Saturday, holidays, and peak delivery periods.

Cover Driver Responsibilities

  • Typically work 8 to 10 hours per day, Monday–Friday or Tuesday–Saturday depending on operational needs
  • Safely operate UPS package delivery vehicles
  • Deliver and pick up packages while providing excellent customer service
  • Work independently in a fast-paced outdoor environment and in and out of customer locations
  • Meet all UPS driver qualification standards and requirements

Occasionally, you may work inside the facility as a Seasonal Warehouse Worker

  • Typically work 3.5 to 5 hours per day, Monday–Friday or Tuesday–Saturday
  • Sort, move, and handle packages in a fast-paced warehouse environment
  • Report on the assigned warehouse shift when not scheduled as a Cover Driver

What you’ll need:

  • Ability to lift, lower, and carry packages weighing up to 70 lbs.
  • Stamina – this is a workout like no other!
  • Valid driver’s license—no CDL required (License type varies by state – proof required to qualify for the position)
  • Satisfactory driving history
  • Pass the DOT physical
  • Pass a UPS driver test
  • Excellent customer contact and driving skills
  • Cover drivers are expected to comply with UPS driver appearance guidelines and wear the company-provided uniform
  • Authorized to work in the U.S.

Additional Benefits:

  • Excellent weekly pay
  • Potential future career opportunities with UPS*

*This is a seasonal role. A seasonal job is a great place to start at UPS. Although continued employment is not guaranteed beyond the seasonal period, many team members begin in seasonal roles and later pursue additional opportunities with UPS. Shifts vary between Monday - Saturday, depending on business needs.

This job posting includes information about the minimum qualifications, including the UPS Appearance Guidelines, locations, shifts, and operations within the locations that may consider your application. An applicant or employee may request an exception, change, or accommodation for any condition of employment, including the UPS Appearance Guidelines. 

The base pay for this position is $28.00/hour

UPS is committed to providing a workplace free of discrimination, harassment, and retaliation. UPS is an equal opportunity employer. UPS does not discriminate on the basis of race/color/religion/sex/national origin/veteran/disability/age/sexual orientation/gender identity or any other characteristic protected by law.
