Why Work for Eagle Express as an Independent Contract Driver?
In case you haven’t heard the good news: we’re hiring!
Thank you! We’re excited about it, too!
The Eagle Express Dallas Courier team is hiring full time employees to drive our straight trucks. If you have a Class B commercial driver’s license and driving experience, we want to hear from you.
If you have no transportation experience, but are energetic and committed to customer service, we want to hear from you, too!
We’re hiring home office staff, customer service representatives and dispatchers.
Our employees enjoy competitive pay, bonus opportunities, and 401k options. Not only that, but you’ll also get to join the Eagle Express family, which promotes a work environment of honesty, integrity, and cohesiveness. Many of our employees we hire stay with us for decades because they feel well respected and taken care of as part of the Eagle family.
All that’s great, but what if you’re just not ready to head back to work full time. Perhaps you’re still navigating the effects of COVID-19. Maybe your kiddos are still in school online or participating in a hybrid model that requires supervision during the day. Maybe you already have a part time job that you’re enjoying, but you need just a little more in the bank each month.
Eagle Express is hiring independent contract drivers who want to make their own schedule.
That’s right! Whether you’re part time this week and full time the next, or you need two weeks off July for your family reunion, Eagle Express still has a place for you. Is your interest piqued?
Here are a few reasons why being an independent contract driver for Eagle Express might be your next gig:
#1 Set Your Own Schedule
Like we said before, IC drivers get to set their own schedules. You decide your goals for the week or the month and take the jobs you want to take. Maybe out of town deliveries are exciting to you, and you only take jobs that bring you to Houston and Austin. Or, maybe you prefer to work nights and weekends so you can spend more time with your family. Whatever your jam, Eagle Express can work with it!
#2 Lower Your Taxes
We know that as an IC, you incur a lot of expenses. Thankfully, some of those are paid for by the Eagle Express team, and others can be written off on your taxes each year. As a truck driver, you can deduct items such as toll expenses, tools, offices supplies, and even leasing costs. Of course, it’s always best to check with a tax law expert, but you can be sure that as an IC, you have quite a few perks coming your way each April!
#3 Enjoy Competitive Pay
Here at Eagle Express, we believe happy drivers mean satisfied customers. That’s why we pay our drivers well, with higher pay than our competitors. We want you to keep coming back to drive for us, and we want you to keep doing a great job at representing Eagle Express Dallas Courier Service. Like we said, you’re a part of the family!
#4 Responsible Insurance Policies
As an independent contractor, you’ll have to carry insurance, of course, but you’re also covered under Eagle Express’s insurance policies. If an unforeseen event were to occur, the Eagle team can have your back and make it right. With a full suite of insurance from A-rated providers, we don’t skimp on our policies. That gives you the confidence to drive for us and carry some of our most sensitive cargo to its final destination.
#5 Stability
Many times, independent contractors have to scramble to find work. That’s not the case with Eagle Express. We’ve been in business for nearly 40 years. We have a strong client base that’s growing by the day. If you want to work, there’s work to be had! You’ll find reliable and stable work with Eagle Express. You’ll also find a stable work environment. Like we said before, the Eagle Express team is a family, and our ICs are part of it. We believe in promoting an inclusive and cohesive work environment. We’ve been putting our principles first for nearly four decades, and we’ve never been sorry about that.
As an independent contract driver for Eagle Express Dallas Courier, you’re treated to these perks and more!
