- You will safely operate a tractor/trailer (usually an automatic
Volvo, international or freight liner; diesel/natural gas) and
transport products to and from specified destinations by Federal
Motor Carrier Safety Regulations.
- This is a physical job. We load and unload trailers -- this can
be manual, involve palletized loading/unloading, or require using a
two-wheeler. You will also be lifting things over your head.

we believe the rewards are worth it, and our drivers agree.Given
our large salaries and phenomenal benefits, you might wonder what

Frito-Lay drivers expect of one another:

vehicles by practicing defensive driving. We have a strong
reputation as transportation professionals on the road.
- Coachable and Communicative: you can take feedback and adjust
how you do things in the spirit of cooperation, safety, and
efficiency. Communication is a two-way street. Did you encounter a
safety hazard? Were there issues with your delivery? Your honest
feedback is valued here.

vary daily. Everyone at Frito-Lay works weekends and holidays.
