Delivery Driver - Westbrook House of Pizza - Avg $23-$30/hr, steady local deliveries

Westbrook, ME • On-site

$15.10 - $30/hr

Re-posted 29 days ago

Job description

DESCRIPTION
Delivery Driver (In-House - No App Driving)
Westbrook House of Pizza | Westbrook, Maine
Westbrook House of Pizza is looking for dependable, friendly, and motivated delivery drivers to join our team.
This is an in-house delivery position - you'll be delivering directly for our restaurant, not through DoorDash, Uber Eats, or other third-party apps. Our drivers enjoy steady business, repeat local customers, consistent hours, and strong tip potential.
If you enjoy driving, working independently, and being part of a fast-paced team, this is a great opportunity to earn excellent hourly income in a supportive work environment.
What You'll Do
  • Deliver customer orders safely and efficiently
  • Provide friendly, professional customer service
  • Handle payments and receipts accurately
  • Communicate with the store during deliveries
  • Assist in-store between deliveries:
  • Answering phones
  • Bagging orders
  • Light prep work
  • Stocking and cleaning

You're an important part of the customer experience - often the last team member our customers interact with.
Schedule
  • Afternoon & evening shifts available
  • Weekend availability required
  • Full-time & part-time positions available

Pay & Benefits
Average Earnings: $23-$30+ per hour
  • Base pay starting at $15.10/hour
  • Delivery tips (many drivers earn $70-$100+ in tips during a 4-hour shift)
  • Additional in-store tip share
  • Busy shifts can earn significantly more

We Also Offer:
  • Paid training
  • Flexible scheduling
  • Consistent weekly hours
  • Employee meals & discounts
  • Supportive family-run workplace
  • Steady delivery area (no long-distance routes)
  • Opportunities for additional in-store hours

Many of our long-term drivers stay because of the consistent earnings, flexible environment, and loyal repeat customers.
What We're Looking For
  • Reliable and punctual
  • Friendly and professional with customers
  • Comfortable working independently
  • Organized and able to work efficiently during busy periods

No delivery experience required - we're happy to train the right person.
Requirements
  • Valid driver's license
  • Reliable personal vehicle
  • Active auto insurance
  • Smartphone for navigation and communication

Why This Job Is Different
Unlike app driving, you're not competing with other drivers for orders.
Our deliveries are handled directly through the restaurant, giving our drivers:
  • Steady business
  • Familiar delivery areas
  • Repeat local customers
  • More consistent earnings

If you're looking for a job where you can stay busy, work independently, and earn strong hourly income, we'd love to meet you.
Apply today and join the Westbrook House of Pizza team!
REQUIREMENTS
  • Valid State Driver's License
  • Acceptable motor vehicle record (specific requirements may vary - but your record does not have to be perfect)
  • Valid Insurance Verification
  • Reliable vehicle that you can use for deliveries
