What does a van owner operator do?

A van owner-operator can work in a variety of industries, so job duties vary. If you work in the delivery industry, your responsibilities include moving or delivering goods and loading and unloading your van. You can also work in the transportation or moving fields. Many companies, such as Amazon and private delivery services, employ van owner-operators on a contractual basis. If you are transporting people, you may work on contract for a tour company, airport shuttle service, or similar service. You can also run your own business in any of these industries. Since you are the owner, all of these jobs involve some bookkeeping responsibilities, even if you work as an independent contractor. All of these jobs require some travel, though it may be regional.
