Professional Night Shift Box Truck Driver – Amazon Relay Routes (Non-CDL)
Auto ImportOverview
At Fidus Freight, we operate under the Amazon Relay network, where precision, speed, and safety are our highest priorities. Because every route is stringently monitored by Amazon’s real-time telemetry, we maintain a highly structured work environment built on strict accountability. We are seeking serious, disciplined professionals who take pride in elite performance.

The Reality of Amazon Relay Performance Metrics
Amazon Relay facilities operate on unforgiving, automated schedules. Every load is assigned a unique Vehicle Route Identifier (VRID), which tracks your exact trip telemetry. There is zero tolerance for the following operational failures, as they directly impact our carrier scorecard:
- Late arrivals to pickups or deliveries (we expect drivers to arrive 30–60 minutes early for check-ins).
- Failure to strictly follow Amazon yard, warehouse check-in, and check-out procedures.
- Unauthorized stops or route deviations from the GPS.
- Poor or delayed communication with dispatch.
- Unsafe driving or failure to complete pre-trip and post-trip equipment inspections.
Drivers who fail to meet these objective performance measures will be removed from routes immediately.
Compensation & Performance Bonuses
We believe in rewarding elite execution. Our compensation model is highly competitive and directly tied to performance:
- Base Pay: 40% of the Completed Weekly Relay Contract Block Rate.
- Weekly Pay Cycle: Payments are processed securely via QuickBooks Online (QBO) and issued every Friday for work completed the prior week.
