Owner-operators
SteadFast Transportation Inc. contracts with independent owner-operators under individual written agreements to perform USPS Contract Delivery Service routes. This is a business-to-business opportunity, not employment.
Income and route availability are not guaranteed. Route characteristics and operating requirements vary and are defined in the written agreement.
Why SteadFast

You may accept or decline work, engage qualified subcontractors subject to contract approval, and serve other clients at the same time.
