Master the Terminal Yard
Our massive distribution center is looking for a skilled Yard Jockey to manage our trailer traffic overnight. You will pilot a highly maneuverable terminal tractor (yard goat) to shuttle 53-foot trailers between the staging yard and the active dock doors.
Why This Job Rocks:
- ★ No Traffic: You never leave the gated distribution yard. No DOT logbooks, no weigh stations, no highway stress.
- ★ Fast Paced: You will execute 50+ trailer moves per night. The shift flies by.
- ★ Great Pay: Enjoy a strong hourly base plus a highly lucrative night-shift differential.
Requirements: Class A CDL is highly preferred (though highly experienced non-CDL hostlers will be considered). Must be able to back trailers flawlessly in tight quarters and connect/disconnect air lines hundreds of times a night.
