Job description

Casual Tractor Trailer Driver

Who exactly are UPS Casual Tractor Trailer Drivers?

First and foremost, they’re part of one strong, national team and are a key part of our operations. We refer to them as feeder drivers. They drive a tractor trailer from one UPS location to another—or to a customer on an established route—before returning to their original location. So, after driving our well‑maintained trucks, casual tractor trailer drivers are back home at the end of their day.

What does it take to keep packages moving across the country—and beyond?

• Casual tractor trailer drivers work days, nights and/or weekends
• Valid Class A CDL license (commercial driver’s license) in home state
  • Doubles/Triples endorsement may be needed depending on location
• Pass the DOT physical
• Reliability, responsibility, and a love of truck driving
• Legal right to work in the U.S.
• Casual tractor trailer drivers are expected to comply with UPS appearance guidelines and wear the company‑provided uniform.

What’s in it for you?

• Competitive weekly pay
• Growth Opportunities*
• Reliable, well‑maintained trucks
• Dependable schedules
• Loading/unloading is done for you
• This is a seasonal role. A seasonal job is a great place to start at UPS, and it might even lead to a permanent role that offers even more advantages and benefits! Permanent, full‑time delivery drivers receive an average total compensation package of $145,000 per year. That includes $0 healthcare premiums, up to seven weeks of paid vacation, plus paid time off for holidays, sick leave and option days. UPS also makes contributions to a defined‑benefit pension plan for each employee.

What is UPS all about?

Well, you’re probably already familiar with us—we’re the brown trucks delivering everything from diapers, dish towels and holiday gifts to college care packages and life‑saving medicines.

But we’re more than that. We’re also hardworking, efficient package handlers and friendly, focused drivers. We’re professionals working in finance, technology, engineering, marketing and more. We are building our business ethically, sustainably and in an environmentally conscientious way. And we are here to deliver what matters—to customers, communities, colleagues, the world, and to you and your career. Come work for an award‑winning company.
