Jacksonville transportation jobs: delivery app work, flatbed trucking, and private-fleet team driving
Jacksonville’s lineup is mostly transportation-focused, but the roles differ in structure and employer type. Spark Driver is an app-based delivery option tied to Walmart and other local businesses, while WEL Transportation’s posting is a driver referral program rather than a driving job itself. CRST and Melton Truck Lines are both flatbed trucking employers, with CRST centered on owner operators and lease purchase options and Melton on over-the-road flatbed routes. Hobby Lobby Transportation stands apart as a private-fleet team-driving listing with both full-time and part-time tagged employment types.
