Job Title: Full-Time Class B CDL Driver (Stage Production & General Freight)

Company: FLH Logistics LLC

Location: Rhode Island / New England Area

About the Role

FLH Logistics LLC is seeking a professional, high-caliber Class B CDL Driver to join our roster as a Full-Time Operator. This role involves operating a well-maintained 24-foot straight box truck for a hybrid schedule of both live event stage production transport and general commercial freight deliveries throughout New England and the Mid-Atlantic.

The Concert & Event Production Aspect: During our peak season (May through September), a significant portion of your dispatches will be dedicated to the live event industry. Note: We handle heavy structural staging only—we do not transport or handle lighting, audio, or visual equipment. This is not a standard drop-and-hook gig. Once the parking brake is set at a venue, arena, or outdoor festival, you transition from driver to production crew. You will work shoulder-to-shoulder with our internal stagehands and event crew to push heavy structural carts, assemble staging decks, build out the physical stage framework, and execute rapid-fire load-ins and post-show teardowns under tight venue deadlines. As a member of the FLH crew, you will often find yourself in the heart of the action; certain event dispatches may include perks such as free event tickets or, in some cases, all-access VIP credentials. You must thrive in a fast-paced, high-energy environment where teamwork and heavy physical hustle are mandatory.

Equipment, Operation & Schedule

• Vehicle: 2014 Freightliner M2 (33,000 GVWR / Class 7).

• Specs: 24’ Box, Automatic Transmission, Air Brakes. (No tractor-trailers).

• Technology: Fully digital fleet utilizing the Motive ELD system and mobile dispatching.

• Routes & Schedule: Most stage venues are generally within a 2-hour driving radius. Primarily home daily with occasional regional overnights (lodging provided by the company).

  • Stage Production Days: Live events dictate our clock. You must be highly flexible, as these dispatches frequently involve odd, non-traditional hours (very early AM call times or late afternoon/evening starts) to meet strict venue deadlines.

  • General Freight Days: Standard commercial freight will be dispatched primarily to fill the schedule between stage production days. These hauls operate on a more traditional schedule, typically running between 7:00 AM and 8:00 PM.

Compensation & Responsibilities

• Stage Production Hauls: $290.00 Flat Rate per day dispatched. (Note: Stage dispatches explicitly require active physical labor alongside our crew, including the 3-5 hour load-in/stage assembly, teardowns, and load-out at the venue).

• General Freight Hauls: $250.00 Base Flat Rate per day dispatched. (Primarily standard dock-to-dock driving and live unloads).

  • Volume Incentive Bonus (General Freight Only): We reward hustle. If FMCSA Hours of Service (HOS) permit, you will earn additional bonuses for executing multiple loads in a single shift:

    • 2nd Load Completed: +$20.00

    • 3rd Load Completed: +$25.00

    • 4th Load Completed: +$35.00

• Expenses: 100% of authorized fuel, tolls, and maintenance are covered by the company.

• Payment: Weekly via 1099 direct deposit.

• Licensing: Valid Class B CDL (or Class A) with an active Air Brake endorsement.

• Experience: Minimum of 3 years verifiable commercial driving experience.

• Schedule Flexibility: Must be completely comfortable working odd hours for event days, while maintaining reliability for standard 7 AM – 8 PM general freight dispatches.

• Technology Proficiency (Mandatory): Must own a reliable smartphone and possess the ability to easily learn and use mobile ELD (Electronic Logging Device) and dispatching apps.

• Physical Ability: Must be highly capable of performing heavy, continuous physical labor for 3-5 hours at a time (pushing structural carts, lifting heavy staging decks, assembling framework).

• Compliance: Must have a “Not Prohibited” status in the FMCSA Clearinghouse & pass a mandatory pre-employment DOT drug screen.

• Medical & Insurance Standards: Must possess a current DOT Medical Card. Due to strict commercial insurance underwriting standards, you must have a highly clean Motor Vehicle Record (MVR) with NO MORE than 1 minor violation and ZERO major violations.
