Flatbed Driver Requirements

Must park at the Nussbaum Terminal in Hudson, IL.

Expect a lot of lifting. Every load is in-depth driver touch including tarping, load securement, flagging for oversize loads, etc.

Many open-deck loads will be oversize utilizing RGN and drop-deck trailers requiring appropriate permits and signage.

These positions are intended to be 100% flatbed, so will have little or no dry-van fill in.

May include some Canadian freight eventually so a passport and a very clean background may be required.
