As a Highway Contract Route driver, your main daily responsibility is to pick up, transport, and deliver mail and packages along a designated route, following the schedule provided by the U.S. Postal Service. You will load and unload mail at postal facilities and contract stops, ensuring accuracy and timeliness in all deliveries. Maintaining records, performing basic vehicle checks, and adhering to postal safety standards are also part of the job. While much of your work is independent, you'll collaborate with postal staff and sometimes interact with the public. This role is ideal for those who value routine, autonomy, and providing an essential community service.
