As a Local Driver, you will be operating a shuttle truck to drop and hook flatbed trailers from one storage yard to another, operating short distances on public roads. You would also be trained on forklift operations to load and unload trailers, as needed.

This is not a long-haul position, but a local driver position to move loaded and unloaded trailers quickly, efficiently, and safely. It's a fast-paced, hard-working, but very rewarding environment where you will be part of a team that moves and organizes industrial transformers. Maddox is a great American company that values honesty, integrity, and recognizes the men and women who serve our customers, build up the team, and value the company and culture we've built.

Your day-to-day activities will involve operating a commercial shuttle truck, securing flatbed loads, and communicating with suppliers and other truck drivers.

Most of the job is spent on or around your truck, with several hours per day on your feet securing loads and working outdoors, whether rain or shine.
