Fuel the Modern Workplace

Corporate breakrooms and university lounges require constant replenishment to keep their populations fueled. As a Vending & Micro-Market Route Driver, you are responsible for executing the daily restock of snack machines, beverage coolers, and automated self-checkout "micro-markets." This is a highly active, independent role where you will pilot a specialized commercial box truck to deliver fresh food, snacks, and drinks. If you thrive in a fast-paced environment and want a route driver job that keeps you physically moving without the stress of managing heavy industrial freight, this is your perfect fit.

Merchandising Operations

• Route Fulfillment: Execute a pre-planned daily route, visiting 15 to 25 commercial and educational locations to service their breakroom equipment.
• Physical Merchandising: Unload heavy cases of beverages, snacks, and fresh food from your truck. You will utilize handheld technology to audit inventory, restock machines using strict "first-in, first-out" (FIFO) rotation, and ensure displays are visually appealing.
• Cash Handling & Basic Maintenance: Collect cash boxes from traditional vending machines and perform basic, on-site mechanical troubleshooting (e.g., clearing coin jams or resetting card readers).
• Quality Control: Meticulously check expiration dates, removing stale products and maintaining a pristine, hygienic environment around the food service areas.

The Route Advantage

Enjoy early morning dispatch times (often starting at 4:00 AM or 5:00 AM), which allows you to beat the morning rush hour and finish your workday by the early afternoon. You work completely independently once you leave the warehouse, managing your own pace and enjoying steady, predictable pay.

Requirements

Must be at least 21 years of age. You must possess a valid driver's license, a clean motor vehicle record, and the ability to pass a DOT physical. Extreme physical fitness is required; you must be capable of repetitively lifting heavy cases of water and soda (up to 50 lbs) and utilizing hand trucks. A clean background check is mandatory due to frequent cash handling.
