Warehouse Worker / Cover Driver
Looking for a role that offers variety and the opportunity to grow your skills? In this dual-role position, you will be trained to perform both warehouse and cover driver responsibilities. Warehouse work will serve as your primary assignment, with opportunities to work as a cover driver.
Your day-to-day assignment will vary based on business needs such as package volume, staffing needs, and seasonal demand. You may rotate between warehouse and driving duties throughout the year-sometimes week to week, and other times spending extended periods in one role before transitioning to the other.
Warehouse Worker Responsibilities
  • Typically work 3.5 to 5 hours per day, Monday-Friday or Tuesday-Saturday
  • Load and unload packages from UPS trailers and iconic brown package cars (vehicles)
  • Sort, move, and handle packages in a fast-paced warehouse environment
  • Report for your assigned warehouse shift when not scheduled as a Cover Driver

Cover Driver (TCD) Responsibilities
  • Typically work 8 to 10 hours per day, Monday-Friday or Tuesday-Saturday
  • Safely operate UPS package delivery vehicles
  • Deliver and pick up packages while providing excellent customer service
  • Work independently in a fast-paced outdoor environment and in and out of customer locations
  • Meet all UPS driver qualification standards and requirements

  • Valid driver's license-no CDL required (License type varies by state - proof required to qualify for the position)
  • Satisfactory driving history
  • Pass the DOT physical
  • Pass a UPS driver test
  • Excellent customer contact and driving skills
  • Cover drivers are expected to comply with UPS driver appearance guidelines and wear the company-provided uniform
  • Authorized to work in the U.S.

  • $0 healthcare premium
  • Paid vacation
  • Paid Sick and Family and Medical Leave time as required by law
  • Paid holidays
  • Discounted Employee Stock Purchase Program

*While this position itself is classified as part-time, additional hours will be available through the cover driving position. A warehouse worker/cover driver is a great place to start at UPS, and it might even lead to a permanent, full-time delivery driver role, where they receive an average total compensation package of $145,000 per year.
This job posting includes information about the minimum qualifications (including the UPS Driver Appearance Guidelines), locations, shifts, and operations within the locations which may consider my application.
