They have Werner pull most of the grocery load there only the dry full pull loads were done by walmart drivers. Werner pays .33 a mile plus 20 a drop. schneider from Ill only made .25-.29 pulling walmart dc down there and 99% of them guys only had 6mo exp.

I Have Been Dying To Drive For These Guys A Driver Gave Me A Number But I Lost It In My Old Cell Phone. I Am In The Dc,md,va Area
People Say Goto The Web Site But Drivers Are Not On There.
Plaese Help -
I currently work at Wal-Mart in Citrus heights I am a supervisor in recieving. I take pride in getting the drivers back on the road, I have NEVER had a driver waiting for over 30 minutes from begining of off load to him/her back in the drivers seat. Tipped over pallets or not, refers or dry, we take care of our drivers, at least at our Wal-Mart we do.
Anyways I am also looking to drive for Wal-Mart eventually, from talking to our drivers they all have told me that its 3 year minimum exp. before they will consider me. Not 1 driver I have spoken too has been un happy with where they are. Well except for that one England driver. -
how do you get a job at wal-mart as a yard driver?
-
This is a good question ... how do you get on as a driver for them period?
-
Well search for ""walmart stores"" then apply for a job in logistics can not post a link here it is against the site rules.
Or apply with CRE or Usxpress they have dedicated accounts with wally mart -
Most of the time yard drivers for walmart are promoted from with-in i worked as an order filler for them for 3 years and was a back-up yard driver till i got offered the job.
lmccracken and InMyDreams Thank this. -
I am in the process of getting my license, all i need to do now is just my yard skills and drive test, the rest is done.
I worked at Wal-mart for approx 3 years in Sacramento recieving supervisor. By speaking with the Wal-Mart drivers I became more interested in driving.
3 years exp is correct I asked the drivers and also called to verrify that. From my experiance dealing with the Wal-Mart drivers they ALL have seemed to be happy where they are and they spoke well of driving for Wal-Mart, I never in 3 years of off-loading trailers have had a bad experiance with a Wal-Mart driver or heard any negative comments. The same cannot be said about the England and Swift drivers that also delivered for Wal-Mart.
I am not talking down on Swift or England, I have no experiance working for either. Just commenting on what actual drivers would tell me. -
Red Bluff Walmart is a good place for DROP & HOOK...... Others like Nevada and just a few others its kinda difficult to do what needs to be done...
