THE CARR GROUP
Independent Contractor – Appliance Home Delivery (Owner Operator)
Ottawa, On | Tuesday – Saturday | Sundays & Mondays Off
Earnings: $205,000 – $250,000 per year (gross)
BE YOUR OWN BOSS - BUT BE PRESENT, BE ACCOUNTABLE, BE ALL IN
The Carr Group is a national logistics company with 114 years in business. We are an established last-mile appliance home delivery operation in Ottawa, ON and due to continued growth and increased volume, we are adding Owner Operators to our team.
We want to be clear about what we are looking for - and what we are not.
We are not looking for absentee operators. If your plan is to place a driver and helper on a truck from another city or province and manage from a distance, this is not the opportunity for you. We have company trucks for that. What we are looking for is an Owner Operator who is hands-on, day-to-day, personally invested in the success of their truck and their business. Someone who shows up, takes ownership, looks after their helper, and understands that running a successful operation requires active participation - not just a name on a contract.
If that is you, read on.
This is steady, full-time work five days a week. You are home every night. No slowdowns, no shutdowns - as long as you bring the work ethic and capability this role demands.
