Ground every answer in facts on this page and the original listing. We never invent Glassdoor-style reviews or salaries that are not in our data.
Be ready to discuss safe driving history, DOT physical readiness, and comfort with early local routes. Expect questions on pre-trip inspections, backing, customer service at loading docks, and how you handle tight delivery windows. Ask about route structure, home-daily scheduling, and equipment (tractor-trailer type, liftgates, temperature control).
Strong fit if you hold or are pursuing CDL-A, prefer home-daily local routes over OTR, and want foodservice distribution work for a large national wholesaler. Less ideal if you need remote work or dislike physical, schedule-driven delivery days.
As a local CDL-A driver for Sysco in Methuen, a typical day is home-daily route work: pre-trip inspection, loading or receiving foodservice freight, then multi-stop deliveries to restaurants and institutional kitchens. Expect early starts, customer-facing drop-offs, careful handling of temperature-sensitive product, and end-of-day paperwork and vehicle checks before heading home the same day.
Build toward CDL-A readiness with official rules and training paths:
