Your own parcel delivery business

Build and lead a team responsible for delivering parcels safely and on time to addresses across your service area.  

Each day, parcels are moved through our national network to your local delivery facility, where your team will sort, scan and load them into their vehicles, then head out to make deliveries. 

As a business owner, you will keep your operation running smoothly by leading your team, maintaining safety and compliance, and ensuring every customer receives the reliable service we’re known for.
