    what's a normal day like for the delivery driver? Are the trucks automatic or manual? What's it like to deliver using a side bay trailer? Do they use regular box trailers and lift gates, and if they do what's the process of loading and unloading them compared to a side bay trailer?
     
    austinmike and Kyle G. Thank this.

    Only work Pepsi bulk

    pepsi side loading bays good, but it ain’t worth it imo

    also every year manuals are becoming harder and harder to find.

    I've seen there drivers a few times using side bay trailers, but I've only seen them use conventional trailers only a time or two... it seems like the side bay trailers are going the way of the manual transmission...

    Usually the bulk guys are start super early like 2-3am they only drop at grocery stores.

    they pay 24-25ish here in Florida but they pay real time and a half

    ####... Do they hire bulk drivers out of school or do you have to work your way up to the bulk driver position?
