About the position
The City Driver position at FedEx Freight involves picking up and delivering freight between service centers and customers while supporting the selling process. This role requires the operation of a tractor-trailer combination, including doubles and triples where applicable, as well as straight trucks. Drivers are responsible for performing daily pre-trip and safety inspections on their equipment to ensure safe operation. They will hook and unhook trailers and converter dollies to and from the tractor and/or trailer, and handle freight using both motorized and manual equipment, such as forklifts, pallet jacks, and hand trucks. In addition to freight handling, City Drivers must secure freight inside trailers using appropriate tools and supplies, including pallets, straps, and ropes. They may also need to recoup or repair damaged freight when necessary and verify and complete required documentation and reports. Compliance with hazardous material regulations and procedures is essential, as is the collection of cash or checks for freight charges when required. Communication with dispatch is crucial for reporting delays, arrivals, and equipment problems, as well as for determining customer pick-up or delivery needs. Customer service is a key component of this role, as drivers are expected to solicit additional business from customers and provide leads to sales for potential new opportunities. The position may also require chaining of vehicle tires and performing job duties of a road driver or dock employee when operationally necessary. Overall, this position demands adherence to all applicable laws, regulations, and company policies while performing other duties as required.
