Job description

Above and Beyond Delivery is a local Arizona delivery company supporting time-critical business-to-business operations throughout the Safford area. Our team is built on people who show up, work hard, communicate early, and take pride in doing the job right. This role is best suited for drivers who want steady work, predictable routes, and a physically active day - not long-haul driving.

Please Read Before Applying!

We believe in being upfront, so there are no surprises after day one:

  • You will be in and out of the vehicle all day
  • You will be working outdoors in Arizona heat
  • Routes and schedules are set and consistent, with limited flexibility

If you prefer a desk job, highly flexible scheduling, or minimal physical activity, this role is likely not a good fit for you.

Job Description:

As a Delivery Driver, you will operate a 16-20' box truck to complete local business-to-business deliveries across the Safford area. You'll be assigned designated routes, provided reliable equipment, and supported with modern in-truck technology to help you work safely and efficiently. Drivers who succeed here value consistency, professionalism, and steady improvement over rushing.

Essential Responsibilities:

  • Safely and professionally operate an extended high-roof Sprinter van on assigned local routes
  • Complete scheduled business-to-business pickups and deliveries throughout the Phoenix area
  • Load, unload, lift, and transport packages consistently throughout the shift
  • Use company issued mobile technology for routing, updates, and documentation
  • Conduct pre-trip and post-trip vehicle inspections
  • Maintain delivery accuracy and on-time performance
  • Represent Above and Beyond Delivery with professionalism at all customer locations
  • Communicate delays, route issues, equipment concerns, or heat related fatigue promptly
  • Keep assigned vehicles clean, organized, and professional
  • Follow all company policies, safety standards, and DOT/insurance requirements

Work Schedule

  • Local routes - home daily
  • Routed schedules
  • Set start times
  • Overtime opportunities may be available based on volume

Training & Support

  • Paid onboarding and training
  • Coaching on route procedures, lifting techniques, and heat management
  • Supportive management with regular check-ins during the early weeks

Qualifications

  • 21+ years of age (insurance requirement)
  • Valid driver's license with clean MVR
  • Experience driving commercial vehicles, box trucks, or similar (preferred)
  • Comfortable using mobile apps, electronic routing tools, and email
  • Ability to repeatedly lift and/or push up to 50 lbs.
  • Comfortable working outdoors in heat and physically demanding conditions
  • Reliable attendance and punctuality
  • Able to work independently and follow structured processes
  • Strong communication and customer service mindset
  • Must pass background check and drug screen

Compensation & Benefits

  • Competitive pay based on experience
  • Paid Time Off (PTO)
  • Paid Holidays after 90 days
  • Medical, dental, vision, telemedicine, voluntary disability and life insurance (30+ hours/week)
  • 401(k) with employer contribution available after one year of service

Work Environment:

This is a local, delivery driver position serving businesses throughout the Safford area. The pace is steady, the equipment is reliable, and teamwork matters. Our culture is built on going above and beyond - for customers, partners, and each other.

Other Duties:

This job description does not cover every task. Additional responsibilities may be assigned as business needs evolve. Drivers must be able to work effectively within a team environment.

Above and Beyond Delivery is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
