Is this a W-2 employee role?

The title specifies Class A contract driver (1099), so pay and taxes are structured as independent contractor work, not standard payroll employment.

What kind of freight is involved?

OTR refrigerated—long-haul, temperature-controlled loads rather than dry van local delivery.

Where is the job based?

Listing location is Saint Petersburg, Pinellas County, Florida; work itself is over-the-road, not remote.
