Frequently asked questions
Leadville's colder months typically increase the need for propane deliveries, making seasonal truck driving jobs more abundant in fall and winter. This cyclical surge affects local hiring trends and offers more opportunities for seasonal drivers seeking short-term work in the area.
While a Class A or B CDL with Hazmat and tanker endorsements is generally required, Leadville employers often value experience with mountain driving conditions due to the area's elevation. Drivers familiar with navigating winding, high-altitude routes tend to have an advantage.
Seasonal truck drivers primarily focus on local routes with predictable schedules and may assist with emergency deliveries during peak periods. Their role often involves flexible availability to cover high-demand seasons without the extended commitments full-time drivers have.
Many seasonal truck drivers use their experience to transition into full-time roles or specialized trucking sectors. Building a solid driving record and gaining endorsements can open doors to long-haul driving or supervisory positions in logistics.
Drivers must ensure safe transport of propane while interacting professionally with customers, providing updates, and answering questions. Adherence to DOT regulations is critical, requiring thorough vehicle inspections and careful handling of hazardous materials.
Ferrellgas stands out with its end-of-season and return-to-work bonuses, plus referral incentives exclusive to seasonal staff. Additionally, paid training and discounts on propane create a supportive environment for seasonal employees.
The role typically involves local routes allowing drivers to be home nightly, which is ideal for maintaining personal routines. However, occasional on-call shifts for after-hours emergencies provide flexibility while ensuring critical service coverage.
Starting pay is around $29 per hour, complemented by $1,000 bonuses awarded at season's end and upon returning. These financial incentives reward dedication and help seasonal drivers maximize their earnings during peak periods.
Ferrellgas offers competitive pay plus benefits like 401(k) matching and stock ownership plans, which are less common in seasonal roles. This blend of financial rewards and employee support enhances job stability compared to typical short-term driving gigs.
