Warehouse Worker / Cover Driver

Looking for a role that offers variety and the opportunity to grow your skills? In this dual‑role position, you will be trained to perform both warehouse and cover driver responsibilities. Warehouse work will serve as your primary assignment, with opportunities to work as a cover driver.

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

Warehouse Worker Responsibilities

• Typically work 3.5 to 5 hours per day, Monday–Friday or Tuesday–Saturday
• Load and unload packages from UPS trailers and iconic brown package cars (vehicles)
• Sort, move, and handle packages in a fast‑paced warehouse environment
• Report for your assigned warehouse shift when not scheduled as a Cover Driver

Cover Driver (TCD) Responsibilities

• Typically work 8 to 10 hours per day, Monday–Friday or Tuesday–Saturday
• 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

What You’ll Need

• The ability to lift 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.

Industry‑leading Benefits

• Growth opportunities*
• 401(k)
• Defined‑benefit pension plan
• Medical, dental, and vision after waiting period
• $0 healthcare premium
• Paid vacation
• Paid Sick and Family and Medical Leave time as required by law
• Paid holidays
• Discounted Employee Stock Purchase Program
• While this position itself is classified as part‑time, additional hours will be available through the cover driving position. A warehouse worker/cover driver is a great place to start at UPS, and it might even lead to a permanent, full‑time delivery driver role, where they receive an average total compensation package of $145,000 per year.
