Transporting people to and from work to different locations of their choices

I was a driver and Boom Operator

Through Spec Temp service I was driving for a company where I would drop and hook to Sam club all over Orlando to St Pete and Clearwater Florida refer trailers and box trailers making 2 to 3 loads a day depending where you had to go. I also delivered to sugar manufacturing companies. I've also worked with a home and building supply warehouse company loading and unloading trucks and train cars of loads of wood and rebarb, rolls of wired, siding and tones of more different supplies. And I'm certified forklift operator as well.

I operated a Peterbilt 379 with aluminum stepdeck trailer. I strapped and chained what ever I was transporting traveled all over the West Coast, Midwest, South, and some of the East Coast l loaded work, military hazmat materials, construction containers. I kept records of deliveries and customer signatures. Completed necessary paperwork and documents for delivery. Performed activities on time while maintaining regular attendance and punctuality to support scheduling and work coverage. Inspected all loaded vehicles for damages and had to Go to court house to register some of the vehicles I delivered.

I was ODR Driver transporting home and building supplies across country for a year then moved local deliveries to home Depot stores in south Florida. I logged deliveries drop off times provided excellent customer service. I was responsible for strapping my loads making sure it was secure and safe to transport. Inspecting my vehicle daily following routes assigned by dispatch to meet delivery objective. Ensure vehicle cleanliness and performed regular maintenance check. Tarp all loads from whether performed pre trip report any vehicle malfunction or accidents immediately to management. Ensure compliance with DOT regulations and other applicable laws govering transportation of cargo. Used a Qualcomm computer to keep track of work habbits daily which recorded our on and off duty and drive time.

I traveled to Jacksonville to East Point Florida to deliver milk and juices to nursing homes through Jacksonville all the way to Tallahassee nursing homes for Monday to Wednesday. Through out the week I was staying in Marriott hotel until Thursday. Thursday I would deliver the products to nursing homes and two schools in that day and after my deliveries where all done I would travel back to Tampa. Friday I would drive a semi Day cab with refer trailer with frozen goods to deliver to Venice Florida a 3 hr trip to South Florida to a warehouse where I would help repalletize my loads. Afer finished I head back to the yard and that was my end of day.

I would preform a pre trip to the truck I would have to share with another driver checking brakes, lights,gas tank, and check the trailer for any sulphur build up before leaving the yard. Go to ship yard to fill me trailer with the recommened amount of sulphur that was recorded by typing in the quantity. Then transported the sulphur to a Masaic sulphur plant. Some days I would transport just sulphur and other days I would transport sulphur and fertilizer which I would load and unload my self. At the end of the day I performed a poat trip before next driver took over.

Before I even get my trailer I would perform a pre trip from oil, lights, tires to make sure my truck was able to travel the distance I was preparing for. Then I would locate my tanker trailer for leaks, lights tires pressure and tag seal with proper trailer number and seal number. I would transport chemicals from corrosive, raw bleach, fuel. Alot of chemical plants I would deliver to require PPE equipment and some required you to stay in your truck or wait in a desinanted location while they deliver and unload the chemicals their self. Most delivery I would unload my trailer by using a pump and hoeses that was attached to the truck. I traveled 3000+ miles a week. I received a certificate for my first 500,000 and first 1 million miles in my first to second year and a I also received a certificate from DOT for having a clean truck all the time and a well maintenance truck with all the inspections and random inspection I had is why I got the certificate. I traveled all of 48 states from Maine to California from Buffalo NY to Texas oil companies.
