Hartrans Cartage Services is a local Peterborough-based trucking company, offering local LTL cartage services as well as TL service, dedicated courier service and flatbed services to other carriers and local shippers.
We are currently looking for a part-time, customer-service focused driver for a dedicated school board delivery run. The position follows the school board calendar, operating 2 days per week from end of August to end of June, with breaks during the Christmas and March break school holidays.

The successful candidate will start at the end of August. For drivers who might wish additional hours there may be the possibility of additional work on non-school board days to deliver LTL - especially if they have straight-truck experience or experience driving with a utility trailer.
