What does a home delivery contractor do?

As a home delivery contractor, your job is to drive a vehicle and deliver equipment or a product to a customer. Some home delivery contractors also service previous purchases like appliances, help get new sales by advertising other products to customers, or help buyers open a package and set up the product. Many home delivery contractors work for either parcel-focused companies like UPS and FedEx or local stores that ship large products like furniture. Depending on the volume, you may work for a single company or pick up deliveries from several different companies before delivering each product. You can own and drive your truck, but some companies provide vehicles.
