Hobby Lobby Info

I've been here at Hobby Lobby for 6 years now. You need a team driver, or be willing to team. Dedicated routes. Deliver to HL stores, and there's over 1000 of them now. Home 2 1/2 days a week, usually weekend. Excellent benefits, pay, top equipment, bonuses. Best company I've ever worked for.

 

Do you need a hazmat and/or a tanker endorsement to drive at HL?

No. Dry van only. They have a few doubles routes though.

 

Team driving only? No thanks I’ll pass. Truck is small enough for me. Don’t want to have smell someone else’s farts too.

 

True, not for everyone. They have put me with some characters. And I've gotten to know some good people as well. Bottom line, it's just a job. It's not a hard job. You do your shift and go to bed. If you're not someone who plays well with others, teaming probably not for you. Curtains make for great neighbors tho. And vent windows, if farts is a thing.
Oh yeah, they do have some solo drivers. You have to live near OKC or Dallas tho.

 

Random Hobby Lobby question for you Superglue...In addition to being a driver, I also collect diecast model trucks. Its come to my attention that Hobby Lobby Transportation department recently produced a model truck...sounds like only drivers can get them/purchase them. What do you know about this one? I'd love to add one to my collection, thats why I ask.

 

I wish they had solo runs. Would love to work for them. Dream company. All volvo fleet! Haha. I’d only team with a significant other. Otherwise not worth it for me.

 

Yep, not for me. This truck ain't big enough for the both of us. I don't care HOW good the company is. Forcing you to live in a 6 foot box with another human should only be something that you are told to do by a judge sentencing you to prison time.

 

What about Ashley Furniture? I'd imagine it'd be a similar experience, all Volvos, and home regularly also. Don't know much about them otherwise though.
