Where applicable to the role: ability to operate a delivery vehicle in accordance with applicable DOT standards

You'll regularly work in both warm and cool conditions with exposure to dampness, equipment noise and vibrations, possible equipment movement hazards, and daily exposure to cleaning chemicals and solvents.
