Virginia Eagle Distributing (VED) is one of Virginia's leading beverage distributors, putting product on the shelves of bars, restaurants, and retail accounts across the region — and our Class A CDL Delivery Drivers are the ones who make it happen.

This is a physically demanding, high-energy role. You'll be on your feet all day: lifting cases, building displays, rotating product, and covering ground on your route.

• Complete daily pre-trip and post-trip Driver Vehicle Inspection Reports (DVIR) before departure and return to company property
• Keep assigned company vehicle clean, check fluid levels regularly, and fuel with the correct fuel type

• Ability to occasionally lift kegs weighing up to 165 lbs.
• Ability to safely operate a pallet jack, hand truck, and u-boat
• Basic math skills and ability to communicate in English verbally and in writing
