You’ll be running overnight routes, hauling freight between customer warehouses and local stops around Wilmington. No long-haul—just consistent lanes, steady work, and a company that respects drivers who get the job done right.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Run a tractor-trailer on local night routes (drop-offs, pick-ups, and transfers)
- Handle freight – load, secure, transport, and unload without damage
- Operate a forklift to stage and move freight when needed
- Complete logs, BOLs, inventories, and all required paperwork clean and accurate
- Perform pre-trip and post-trip inspections and keep your truck road-ready
- Stay in touch with dispatch on routes, ETAs, and any issues on the road
- Deliver top-notch customer service at every stop—you're the face of the company
- Follow all DOT regs, OSHA standards, and company safety policies
- Report any breakdowns, violations, or incidents immediately
What You Bring To The Seat
- Valid Class A CDL with a solid MVR
- Forklift certification (or ability to get certified)
- Experience behind the wheel of a tractor-trailer
- Strong safety mindset and attention to detail
- Ability to run nights and manage your route independently
- Good communication skills with dispatch and customers
- Ability to pass DOT physical, drug screen, PSP review, and background check
Physical Side of the Job
- Able to handle freight up to 75 lbs regularly
- Comfortable working on your feet—climbing in/out of the cab, loading, unloading, securing freight
- Capable of long periods of sitting, plus bending, lifting, and moving throughout your shift
Why Drivers Stick with Armstrong
- Home daily – no OTR, occasional work on Saturdays during “peak season” (May through August). Consistent night schedule—know your run, plan your life
- Steady, local freight lanes—no surprises
- Well-maintained equipment and a team that’s got your back
- Work with a company that values safe, professional drivers
