Regional CDL Class A Driver

About the Role

Kelley Supply is looking for a dependable Class A CDL Driver to join our Logistics team in Colby, Wisconsin. This is not a traditional over-the-road driving position. Our drivers are paid hourly, primarily make day-trip regional deliveries, are home most nights, and have no regularly scheduled weekend routes. There are occasional overnight routes depending on delivery needs, but our drivers spend far more time at home than they would in a typical OTR position. And when you are not scheduled for a delivery route, you are still earning your regular hourly pay while working alongside our team in the distribution warehouse.
