Oloround

Job Overview

Oloround is a full-service logistics provider for e-commerce brands, and we’re growing our network of independent Garage Buddy contractors in the Tampa, FL area.

As a Garage Buddy, you’ll run a mini fulfillment center right out of your own home — receiving, storing, packing, and handing off products to help e-commerce brands get orders to customers quickly and reliably.

This is a 1099 independent contractor position. You set your own schedule within our daily delivery windows, giving you the flexibility of gig work with monthly payouts.

A typical day as a Garage Buddy looks like:

• Receive, store, and organize products in a clean, secure space in your home (monthly)
• Pick and pack orders using Oloround’s simple online portal
• Hand off packages to local Route Buddy drivers OR drop them at the nearest UPS Store (by 5 pm same-day)
• Receive and process returns as needed
• Maintain accurate inventory counts using Oloround’s online portal

Requirements

• Must own and live in a single-family home in the Tampa, FL area (no apartments, condos, or rentals)
• Must live within 15 miles of Downtown Tampa
• Dedicated storage space of at least 400 cubic feet (roughly the size of a guest bedroom)
• All adults (18+) living in the home must pass a background check
• Comfortable using a simple online system to manage and track orders
• Reliable transportation for daily UPS drop-offs (regular car is fine — no truck or van needed)
• Ability to receive orders by 1 pm and drop off packages at UPS by 5 pm same-day

You earn money two ways as a Garage Buddy:

• Per-Package Pay: the rate depends on order complexity. The more packages you handle, the more you earn.
• Monthly Storage Fee: paid to you for providing storage space for inventory
• All earnings paid out monthly
• 1099 contractor — you are self-employed and responsible for your own taxes

Schedule & Work Type:

• Contract / 1099
• Part-time / Flexible hours
• Work from home (your own residence in Tampa, FL)
• You control your own schedule — within two daily service windows (receive by 1 pm, drop off by 5 pm same-day)
• Proactively notify Oloround if you need a day off for best service continuity
